All right, here you go, baby girl.
Your daddy and sister will
be here a little later, okay?
- Okay.
- Okay.
Right now, it's just you and me.
'Kay?
You ready to read the book?
All right, "Little Red Riding Hood."
(Tammy laughs)
What do you see?
I see a rabbit
- Yeah.
- And a monkey.
(flame whooshing)
(spaghetti crunching)
(hands smacking)
(fork clinking)
(gentle music)
[Tammy] Good, hmm? Mm.
Mm, hey, Tammy, it
was delicious as usual.
Stop it, Michael.
Since when do you call me Michael?
Thought it was always just Mike.
Don't mess up a good thing.
I'm feeling a little frisky.
Okay.
Mm, you hardly touched your plates.
I saw that.
I don't need your sarcasm.
I'm gonna get the girls ready for bed.
Hey, darling.
Come on. You ready for bedtime?
All right, come on.
I'm ready for bed.
Yeah, okay.
I'm ready for bed.
(gentle music continues)
Okay, come on.
(Annie laughing)
(fork clinking)
Ready for bedtime, sweetie?
(gentle music continues)
Yeah.
Here we go. Here is our bed.
There you go.
Oh, honey, I love you so much.
(book thuds)
(gentle music continues)
(gasps) Do you see something over there?
Can you say book?
I know.
Okay.
(Tammy laughs)
Goodnight, girls.
(crickets chirping)
(door clattering)
[Mike] So how were the girls?
- They're okay.
- That's good.
(bedding rustling)
You know, Coral seemed
to have lost her appetite.
Oh, yeah?
Annie was acting kind of fussy, too.
Are you being sarcastic?
No.
Well, okay, wise guy,
she hardly made a fuss.
You know, I'm starting to
think you're patronizing me.
I think you need to
keep your appointment
with Dr. Bradley.
Yes, I know.
(bedding rustling)
(traffic whooshing)
(phone ringing)
(door clattering)
Hello, Tammy.
Please, make yourself at home.
Don't I always?
Now tell me, how's your head space?
It's good, but the girls and
Mike are becoming a bit much.
I see, both girls?
(laughs) That's what I said, Doctor.
Is there a problem?
Is there a reason for the sarcasm?
I am not in the mood.
Have you been taking your medication?
Yes.
Are you sure?
(sighs) Look, I might
have missed a time or two.
What are you saying?
I'm just suggesting you stay consistent
with your medication.
Why? Is there a problem?
[Dr. Bradley] No, I just
wanna make sure you're okay.
(Tammy sighs)
Is our session over?
I will email you about
our appointment next week.
May I see you out?
It's fine. I'll look for the email.
(bag clattering)
(pensive music)
(door clattering)
(pensive music continues)
(footsteps plodding)
(notification chiming)
(feet shuffling)
[Dr. Bradley] Leaving me
feeling unsafe in my practice.
(Tammy breathing heavily)
I will continue-
What?
[Dr. Bradley] to document his behavior.
- Yeah, right, Dr. Bradley.
- For the safety and welfare
of my patients.
(toilet water sloshing)
(phone thudding)
(Tammy sighs)
(footsteps plodding)
Oh, hey, babe.
(Mike exhales)
So how was your day?
It was all right.
Are you sure?
Yes, I'm sure. How was work?
(laughs) Are you trying
to change the subject?
Well, if you must know,
it was about the same.
Mm, was it?
Yeah, I had to make sure
that my sales team hit all their goals.
Ooh, did they?
(laughs) Since when you care
about pharmaceutical sales?
It pays the bills, right?
What's that supposed to mean?
(child crying)
(pensive music)
(child continues crying)
I'm gonna check on the girls.
(child continues crying)
(pensive music continues)
(mellow music)
(phone buzzing)
Hello, Patrice?
Hey, girlie, and it better be important.
(Tammy whimpering)
Um.
What is it? What, what's wrong?
I'm sorry. I didn't mean it.
I can't take it.
[Patrice] Take what?
(Tammy exhales)
The kids,
the psychiatrist, and Mike.
Oh, okay, okay, let's
take a deep breath.
Now let's address it one thing at a time.
Bradley is annoying me.
- Bradley?
- Yes.
Since wonder we refer to our
shrink on a first-name basis?
Oh, did I not say doctor?
[Patrice] Are you sure you okay?
I'm just overwhelmed.
(child crying)
Is that Annie?
It's one of them.
(pensive music)
- One of them?
- I have to go.
(child crying)
(pensive music continues)
(TV g*nshots blasting)
(crickets chirping)
(item clattering)
(TV character groaning)
Tammy, that you?
[Coral] No, Daddy.
(dramatic music)
(remote clattering)
(sighs) Ain't even funny.
All right, quit playing games.
Be quiet.
(brooding music)
(birds chirping)
(footsteps plodding)
(footsteps continue plodding)
Bye, Mommy Dearest. Bye, Annie.
(somber music)
(somber music continues)
I can't be late.
(engine rumbling)
(students chattering indistinctly)
(feet thudding)
(Coral screams)
Are you okay?
You okay?
[Coral] Uh, I think so.
Let me know if you need anything.
We have a first-aid
kit underneath my seat.
[Coral] I'll be okay.
(engine rumbling)
(pensive music)
(engine roaring)
(pensive music continues)
(pensive music continues)
Thank God you heal quickly.
Did you do your homework assignment?
Don't I always?
(laughs) Yes, you do.
My mom is starting to ignore me again.
Your little sister's only three.
You gotta get her attention.
No, but she's just so selfish.
Someday she's gonna pay for it.
(pensive music)
(engine rumbling)
Kiss already.
[Students] Kiss, kiss,
kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss,
kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss
- Hey.
- Kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss,
kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss.
Cut it out.
(brooding music)
You kids don't even know
what you're talking about.
Now, time to get off, we have arrived.
(engine rumbling)
(doors hissing)
[Amber] I have a feeling
today's gonna be a good day.
[Coral] Me too, sister.
You guys don't look like sisters to me.
Was I talking to you?
You're just jealous, rhino nose.
(gentle music)
(birds chirping)
(gentle music continues)
(ball thudding)
Can we play too?
No, we don't want girls to play.
[Girls] That's not fair.
Come on. Just let 'em play.
All right, fine.
Boys versus girls then.
Okay.
- Nice.
- Cool.
(ball thudding)
(gentle music continues)
[Player] Come on, come on.
(hands smacking)
(players chattering indistinctly)
(ball thudding)
(laid-back music)
(traffic whooshing)
(door squeaking)
(horn honking)
(engine humming)
Can fall
[Driver] Huh.
I'm headed straight
into your waiting arms
I'm headed straight into your
[Robin] Daddy, are you drunk?
Oh, I know you're not talking to me,
you little pissant.
(tense music)
Daddy, please don't be mean.
I hate it when you drink.
Oh, you want mean?
(engine roaring)
(tires screeching)
(vehicle thudding)
(steam hissing)
(pensive music)
Robin, Robin, wake up.
Robin, wake up. Wake up, baby girl.
Wake up.
Wake up, baby girl. Wake up.
(steam hissing)
(pensive music continues)
(Robin sobbing)
(Robin continues sobbing)
- Do you hear that?
- I do.
You okay in there?
Amber, mind your own business.
Not.
Don't say I didn't warn you.
My mom says to never meddle
in other people's affairs.
And she has room to
talk? Don't get me started.
Please.
[Robin] Who's out there? Leave me alone.
Honey, this isn't exactly a hotel.
It's a school bathroom.
Come out. We won't hurt you.
Look, I'm sorry I was rude earlier.
Please come out. We don't bite.
You can trust us.
(door clattering and squeaking)
I have just the thing
that might cheer you up.
Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
[Coral] Yeah.
(footsteps plodding)
[Amber] Come on.
(water sloshing)
(birds chirping)
(water continues sloshing)
(birds continue chirping)
Uh, what are we doing?
- Don't be scared.
- Stop being a b*tch.
You just said a bad word.
She's a professional.
Besides, who's gonna check me?
I'm practically a woman.
(dramatic music)
Whoa, good catch.
Thanks.
(pensive music)
(birds chirping)

hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey,
hey, hey, hey, (student squeals)
Hey, hey, hey, hey,
hey, hey, h*, hey, hey.
They seem like fun.
We're not here for that.
Let's go before we're late to class.
(Robin sighs)
[Students] Hey, hey, hey,
h*, hey, hey, hey, hey,
hey, h*, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
(students chattering indistinctly)
(bell rings)
(students chattering indistinctly)
(hand thudding)
Class, I have good and bad news.
Which one do you want first?
How about the bad?
Like you, Dizzy Izzy?
[Students] Ooh.
You better shut your face, little girl,
if you know what's good for you.
[Students] Ooh.
Who might that be?
Oh, there's two of you.
(laughs) Oh, this'll be light work.
We got a fight on our hands.
Oh, yeah.
[Students] Fight, fight, fight, fight,
fight, fight, fight.
(stick thudding)
(dramatic music)
Order.
(stick clattering)
There will not be such a thing.
You need to put this energy
into your assignments.
Now for the news.
Some of you didn't put effort
into involving your parents
or guardians in the
realness of your stories.
As I told you before,
they are the main actors in your plays.
The stories have to speak for themselves.
You got the point?
(gentle music)
(birds chirping)
(Annie and Coral laughing)
You're so cute, (laughs) so cute.
Oh, my gosh, what are you doing?
We're sisters, and we have to
stick together no matter what.
Yeah?
Sisters?
Sisters.
(Coral laughing)
Oh, I have to start
on my homework, sweetie.
Bye.
(gentle music continues)
(bedding rustling)
(Jake exhales)
(bedding rustling)
(lips smacking)
- I love you.
- I love you.
(bedding rustling)
(bedding continues rustling)
This is about the history of my family
and where they're from.
(mouse clicks)
Guess I have to look at the family tree.
Judging by the pictures,
my grandma and I look like,
and we have the same name.
(Tammy laughing)
(birds chirping)
(pensive music)
(pensive music continues)
(pensive music continues)
(pensive music continues)
(door squeaking and clattering)
(Tammy exhales)
(pensive music continues)
When are you coming back, Jake?
I miss you.
Jake? Who the hell is Jake?
(bedding rustling)
Hey, wake up.
(Tammy laughs)
You.
Is that the way to greet your husband
after he's been at work all day?
No.
(bedding rustling)
(Mike sighs)
(light hissing)
(eerie music)
(entity vocalizing)
What was that?
Electrician must have
miswired something.
I'm gonna go check the breaker.
Uh, uh, I think the light's out.
So you care to tell me
what you were dreaming about?
What do you mean?
Come on.
(child crying)
I need to check on Annie.
(Mike sighs)
(child crying)
Saved by the bell.
(Mike sighs)
(traffic whooshing)
Tammy, please, uh, lie down. Relax.
Mm, no, I'd rather not.
Is everything okay?
You, uh, you seem a bit agitated.
No, (laughs) I feel fine.
Tammy, I've been doing this a long time.
You're not fine.
I didn't have time to put my face on.
(light hissing)
(eerie music)
That's weird.
Do you think he knows?
No.
It's best he doesn't
find out about the secret.
Some things are, uh, better left unsaid.
I agree.
So same time next week?
Yes, and I'll make sure
to be more presentable.
Excellent.
(footsteps plodding)
[Patrice] What's up, girlie?
And it better be important.
I'm sorry. Are you in
the middle of something?
No, oh, you can't take a joke?
You know, you've been on edge lately.
That's an understatement.
[Patrice] Oh, sh**t, what's going on?
Mike has been acting strange.
Hasn't he always been a little off?
Yeah, but he's gotten worse.
[Patrice] Okay, give me an example.
Well, for starters, he's
been trying to touch me.
- How?
- You know.
Oh, touch you, and what do you do?
Girl, awkward.
Are you serious? You are married.
Remember? You have two kids.
You can't make him wait that long.
Yeah, I guess you're right.
(sighs) Well, how was your session?
Same as usual.
Is he still hitting on you?
Yeah, I guess.
Maybe it's just my imagination.
No, his behavior is a bit bizarre.
After all, he is shrink.
You know, maybe you should
consider getting a new one.
[Tammy] Not a chance.
You don't have feelings for him, do you?
(exhales) No.
I heard a pause.
No, Miss I Jump to Conclusions.
(notification chiming)
[Patrice] Well, I'm
assuming you have to go.
Yeah, I'll talk to you later.
(Patrice sighs)
(birds chirping)
Hello.
(light hissing)
(entity vocalizing)
Hello? Is anyone there?
(light hissing)
(entity vocalizing)
(phone beeps)
I guess not.
(phone ringing)
- Hi.
- Hey, what are you up to?
Not much.
- You miss me?
- Not hardly.
[Chad] Wait, what?
(laughs) Just kidding.
Of course, I miss you.
Can I see you later?
After I finish sitting.
(glass shattering)
Annie.
(brooding music)
How did you get out of your crib?
Or were you even in there?
Do you see something?
[Annie] Yes.
(air whooshing)
(child laughing)
That was weird.
Come on.
(brooding music continues)
(air whooshing)
(child laughing)
(Karen gasping)
Okay, come here, baby.
Okay. (Gasping)
(latch clicking)
(footsteps plodding)
(Karen exhales)
It's a mess here.
I'm sorry. You weren't gone that long.
I didn't have time to
straighten things back up.
Is everything all
right? Come here, baby.
[Karen] She's okay.
(items clattering)
Okay, you can go.
All right.
Did I do something wrong?
Not that I know of.
Should I be concerned?
No, not at all.
(pensive music)
(Tammy laughs)
- Say bye-bye.
- Bye-bye.
(leaves rustling)
(pensive music continues)
(wind rustling)
(door clattering)
- Got everything?
- Yeah, I do.
(engine humming)
(pensive music continues)
Everything all right?
Yeah, why?
Just seem a little preoccupied.
No, I'm just a little tired.
Are you sure everything's okay?
I said I was all right.
(birds chirping)
(pensive music continues)
(pensive music continues)
(food crunching)
I like this dinner. It's simple.
Plus, I didn't want you have to cook.
Oh, how thoughtful of you.
Are you serious?
(food crunching)
Oh, dear, what would ever
give you that impression?
Do you think Karen has
been acting a bit strange?
Well, now that you mention it.
What did you notice?
She was acting jittery.
Annie was startled.
Yeah, you know, I've been thinking
about installing a security system.
- Without telling me?
- Well, I mean, I figured
it was just a conversation.
(phone buzzing)
We would talk about it.
- Oh, I have to take this.
We will resume this conversation.
[Mike] Yeah.
(footsteps plodding)
(paper rustling)
(food thudding)
[Patrice] Hey, what are you up to?
Just dinner.
Oh, okay, well, I can let you go.
No worries, I can talk for a few.
Well, I'm calling because I
just feel like I haven't been
that attentive towards you.
[Tammy] (laughs) Damn right.
Well, girl, tell me what's going on.
Mike and Karen both have
been acting a bit strange.
Wait a minute. Are you for real?
[Tammy] I'm positive.
Oh, my goodness, well, maybe it's just
because you feel a little guilty.
Uh, not even.
He knows nothing about that.
(laughs) Well, Michael's a square,
so I'm sure he loves you to death.
[Tammy] I can believe the death part.
Ooh, you are super paranoid.
I'll catch up with you later. Gotta go.
Mm.
(lips smacking)
How's it going?
I don't know.
That's all you gotta say?
I'm just pissed.
Why?
It's that, that, that b*tch.
(brooding music)
Is that a way to talk
about Mommy Dearest?
No, it's just I hate liars and cheaters.
Me too, so what are
we gonna do about it?
I guess only time heals wound.
For sure.
(pensive music)
(sighs) All right, do you wanna talk
about what's going on?
I was just gonna mention the same thing.
Karen has been getting a
little too close to my family.
Oh, you've gotta be
kidding me. She's just a kid.
And you're the one who got up
from the table during dinner.
Is that your only comeback?
It was only for a few minutes,
and Patrice had something to tell me.
Patrice always has
something to tell you.
You know, this is why married
people shouldn't spend
so much time with single people.
Are you trying to control me?
Is that what this is about?
Not hardly.
You two go on vacation together,
and I didn't even say a word.
That's what this is about.
Are you jealous?
- Oh.
(glass shattering)
(child laughing)
Is that coming from the girls' room?
I'll go check it out.
(footsteps plodding)
(Mike sighs)
(gentle music)
Hey, what's going on here?
[Annie] Daddy.
Now I know I heard some noises.
It's just this old house.
- Daddy.
- Hey, honey.
Are you okay?
It's me, sweetheart.
I'm right here, 'kay?
(gentle music continues)
(eerie music)
(engine rumbling)
(pensive music)
Good morning, everyone.
Have a good day and don't
forget to do your homework.
You all have a very, very
important assignment.
Since when does he care?
I know, right?
(pensive music continues)
(engine rumbling)
(phone ringing)
Hi, Mike, how are you?
I'm doing okay.
Usually, when people respond with that,
it means otherwise.
What seems to be the problem?
Did I say that there's a problem?
No, I just assumed based on your tone.
Do I have to remind you
that I'm not your patient?
My wife is.
I know. I assume that's
why you're calling.
Is everything okay with her?
I'm gonna get straight
to the point, Doc.
Is there something that I need to know?
(chair creaking)
(Dr. Bradley sighs)
What do you mean?
Please.
Don't play your shrink games with me.
Look, I have the faintest idea
of what you're referring to,
but I would be happy to
jargon my memory bank
and see if maybe there was something I did
to dissatisfy you.
I have to go. Don't tell
her that I called you.
(pensive music)
(Dr. Bradley sighs)
You wanna tell me who
you were talking to?
No one.
Come on, Mike. I wasn't born yesterday.
Did I say that?
(dramatic music)
What are you doing?
- Give me your phone.
No.
(body thudding)
You gotta be kidding me.
You're really gonna put your hands on me
after I asked you a question?
That's not what happened.
Come on. Let me see it.
- Don't.
Stop. I need to go to the hospital.
Fine, I'm gonna go get Annie.
This was an accident.
(footsteps plodding)
(pensive music)
At approximately 9:00 AM on Wednesday,
May 1st, 2024, I received a phone call
from a somewhat irate
husband of a patient.
Uh, Mike Walker called on behalf of Tammy.
Tammy is his partner, and
I have a contract with her.
Therefore, I can neither disclose
nor share information with him.
He was aggressive in his approach,
leaving me feeling unsafe in my practice.
I will continue to document
his behavior for the safety
and welfare of my patient
and that of this practice.
(pensive music continues)
(engine humming)
(phone ringing)
(footsteps plodding)
(staff speaking indistinctly)
(wheelchair clattering)
[Staff] Dr. Chow, 12.
(phone ringing)
(footsteps plodding)
Here you go.
All right, good?
All right?
(phone ringing)
(Mike sighs)
(clothes rustling)
Mrs. Walker, how you doing today?
I'm okay.
Yeah, hospital's never fun, huh?
Let me take your vitals.
We'll see what's going on, okay?
- Thank you.
- Of course.
Uh, let's use this one here then.
If you don't mind,
(Velcro rasping)
Hold it out, thank you.
(armband rustling)
'Kay.
(armband rustling)
All right.
(machine beeps)
(machine whirring)
Can you tell me what happened?
Um.
(Velcro rasping)
Did he do this to you?
Yes, but it was an accident.
[Nurse] (sighs) You know
I'm a mandatory reporter.
I'm gonna have to say something.
- It was my fault.
- Oh, honey,
they all say that.
I swear it was.
Well, (Velcro rasping)
Normally, we call an
officer to take the report,
but I can inform your physician.
Do you have to?
It's your choice,
option one or option two.
Either way, I'm going to
have to say something.
I'll, I'll talk to the doctor.
Okay.
(device clattering)
(footsteps plodding)
[Doctor] Mrs. Walker,
is it okay to come in?
Yes.
You're gonna be okay.
I, uh, got your X-rays back.
Is it broken?
No, um, consider yourself very lucky.
You just suffered a hard fall.
You must have brothers.
I do. How did you know?
I've been doing this for quite a while.
Plus, uh, I can tell
you're a tough customer.
Is that all? Can I go?
Not quite, I need you to
sign this form right there.
The nurse will be in with
your follow-up treatment.
Okay.
It was nice meeting you, Ms. Walker.
I'm sorry it was under
these circumstances.
Take care.
Nice to meet you too.
(Mike and Annie laughing)
(pensive music)
(phone ringing)
(door clattering)
Here you go, for Mrs. Walker.
Oh, thank you.
(phone ringing)
(pensive music continues)
(pensive music continues)
Here's my insurance card.
Oh, thank you.
We usually get this
when patients check in.
Oh.
You okay?
Yes.
Are you sure?
Thanks for asking. I'm good.
Right, so here's your prescription.
Don't take anything else
with that medication, okay?
And there's your card.
Will this affect my mindset?
I, I'm taking prescription
medicine from my psychiatrist.
Uh, no, no, the doctor
didn't say anything.
You should be okay.
- All right.
- Mm-hmm.
- Hey, baby.
- All done?
(Mike sighs)
(pensive music continues)
(Annie speaking indistinctly)
(footsteps plodding)
Something, something feels off.
(laughs) You're telling me.
What do you think based
on, on your observations?
Should, um, should we
Contact law enforcement?
Normally, um, under these circumstances,
I, I would say yes.
But she is on some strong medications.
Maybe I'll, uh, give old
Bradley a call tomorrow.
[Nurse] I agree.
(pensive music)
I don't know what I see in him.
I'm still young and beautiful.
Doesn't even compliment me anymore.
I should have listened
to my college friends.
I wasn't ready for kids or a husband,
and they are just like him.
(pensive music continues)
(zipper whizzing)
(pensive music continues)
A little makeup.
(pensive music continues)
(brush clanking)
(dramatic music)
(water sloshing)
(Tammy gasping)
I need this. (Gasping)
(bottle clattering)
(brooding music)
(Tammy gasping)
(eerie music)
(child laughing)
Seeing ghosts.
(Tammy gasping)
(brooding music)
(Tammy sobbing)
(pensive music)
(Tammy continues sobbing)
Cannot believe what I just saw.
Is my mind playing tricks on me?
(bedding rustling)
(Mike moans)
You awake?
No, it's just your imagination.
(moans) Okay, good night.
(body thudding)
(bedding rustling)
(bedding continues rustling)
(phone ringing)
- Hello.
- Hey, Bradley.
[Dr. Bradley] How are you, Doc?
Doc? Come on.
We should be on a first-name basis by now.
(Dr. Bradley laughing)
What a pleasant surprise.
How have you been, Arthur?
Good, good, you know, but
unfortunately, I'm calling
under some unforeseen circumstances.
And what might that be?
Well, I'll get straight to the chase.
Um, do you have a patient
by the name of Tammy Walker?
Well, um...
You don't have to answer.
Your silence speaks volumes.
That being said, I think
you should have a session
with her sooner than later.
Uh, if I'm not mistaken, I
think she might be abused.
(Dr. Bradley sighs)
What happened?
You have to read between the lines.
Nowadays, we all have to be cautious.
(phone clanking)
(Dr. Bradley sighs)
(water sloshing)
(birds chirping)
- How have you been?
- I'm fine.
(laughs) Bet you are.
(Amber laughs)
You're good for my ego.
I wouldn't have it any other way.
(water sloshing)
(birds chirping)
Um, did you start your
homework assignment?
Which one?
The homework assignment.
Oh, um.
(water sloshing)
(birds chirping)
(eerie music)
(marker thudding and squeaking)
(no audio)
Now, some of you are not listening.
- Not me.
- Shut your pie hole.
[Amber] Who, me?
Who else am I talking to?
Sh.
(brooding music)
Sorry.
We're all gonna have to pay.
You damn right.
She means business.
I know that's right.
Twon, you got something to say?
Please stop.
(Ms. Jackson exhales)
Now that I have your attention,
I need you all to start
your homework assignments.
You have to complete your
mission with passion.
What does that mean?
Now get to writing.
All of you have been disrespected
by your family members
and told you weren't going
to amount to anything.
Am I right?
Yes.
(stick clattering)
(footsteps plodding)
(brooding music continues)
They even went as far as
to eliminate you.
(dramatic music)
(stick rasping)
(brooding music)
(hand thudding)
(fingers tapping)
Now make sure you make them pay
just like you did.
Remember?
A eye for an eye. (Laughs)
(dramatic music)
(traffic whooshing)
(phone ringing)
Hello.
[Dr. Bradley] Hey, is now okay to talk?
I promise I'll make it short.
No worries.
[Dr. Bradley] I was
wondering, can you come
into the office for a visit?
For?
[Dr. Bradley] I'll fill you in tomorrow.
Okay, what time?
How's 10:00 AM?
Can I bring Annie?
I won't have a sitter.
It's during school hours.
That's perfectly fine.
I'll see you tomorrow.
(phone beeps)
(eerie music)
(door squeaking)
(eerie music continues)
(dramatic music)
(dramatic music continues)
Annie.
(Tammy gasping)
(child laughing)
You okay?
Annie.
(child laughing)
(brooding music)
(entity vocalizing)
Annie?
Where are you?
(brooding music continues)
(child laughing)
(brooding music continues)
(Tammy gasping)
(Tammy continues gasping)
(brooding music continues)
(Tammy continues gasping)
(brooding music continues)
I don't know what's gotten
into you, baby girl.
I don't like it.
(entity growling)
(air whooshing)
(eerie music)
(eerie music continues)
Is my mind playing tricks on me?
Leave me alone!
Go away! (Gasping)
It's okay. (Gasping)
Honey, are you okay?
Hey, hey, what happened?
Look like you saw a ghost.
I may have.
Are you okay?
You been taking your medication?
How's your arm?
- My arm is fine.
It's my head.
All right, do you want
me to get you some aspirin?
No, I'm going to bed.
Here, you tuck her in.
- All right.
(footsteps plodding)
I'm just trying to help.
Hey, princess, Mommy okay?
Yeah? Okay, good.
If you say she's okay, she's okay.
Did she give you a bath?
Yeah? Good.
At least she did something, ah.
(Mike imitates engine roaring)
(footsteps plodding)
(Tammy breathing heavily)
(phone ringing)
So how have you been?
I've had better days.
I can see that, uh, you
seem to have been struggling.
I can't help but wonder
what might have changed.
Have you, um, been taking any other meds?
Um.
Please be forthcoming
with the truth if you have.
That's the only way I can help you.
I am taking pain pills.
For your arm?
(Tammy whimpering)
Mike grabbed me.
(Dr. Bradley sighs)
Why does that not surprise me?
(glasses clanking)
(plastic rustling)
(Tammy sobbing)
Don't cry. It's gonna be okay.
[Tammy] No, it's not.
Look, I've been documenting
his actions just in case.
[Tammy] It was an accident.
(Tammy sobbing)
(somber music)
(Tammy continues sobbing)
(gentle music)
It's always an accident.
That's what controlling men say.
Listen.
I need you to give me all of
the pain meds you have, okay?
It might be causing you to hallucinate
and even affect your sleep.
I need to see them.
(pensive music)
(pills rattling)
(sniffs) There you go.
Okay, I need to research what
this has been doing to you.
All right?
And then I'll get back to you, okay?
'Kay.
It's gonna be okay. I promise.
All right.
(bottle clattering)
(Dr. Bradley sighs)
(engine humming)
(fingers tapping)
(Mike sighs)
Thanks for meeting me
on such short notice.
Yeah, what are friends for?
(Mike exhales)
Where do I even start?
Why don't we try the truth?
It's honestly the challenging part.
The truth?
Nowadays, it feels more
stranger than fiction.
Try me, old friend.
It all started when
she took that girls' trip
with Patrice.
- Oh, no, no, no.
Do not feed me any of this
chauvinistic bullshit.
I'm not.
I mean, honestly, I've
never been controlling.
Now that you mention it, never? (Laughs)
How did her attitude change?
There's been a real lack of intimacy.
Oh, mm, nope.
Please, (laughs) let's focus on anything
other than your manly needs.
All right, if you're gonna
tag me every time I try
to open up, then we shouldn't
- No, I'm-
- even do this.
I'm sorry. I didn't mean
to come across like that.
Uh, she's just been really
short with me anytime I ask her
who she's calling or
who she's texting with,
and I really feel like
she's starting fights
with me deliberately,
Verbally or physically?
Mostly verbally.
What do you mean mostly?
We've pushed each other.
Mike, you need to be careful
if what you're saying is true.
Why?
[Sharon] You don't know
how far she'll take it.
Is she seeing a shrink?
Yes.
(brooding music)
Sorry, I lost my train of thought.
Is everything okay?
Yeah.
(phone ringing)
(Tammy laughs)
- Hello.
- Hey, girlie.
- Are you good?
- Yeah.
No.
Tammy, Mike is cheating on you.
Yeah, right.
He would never do such a thing.
Don't be too sure.
Hey, I have you on
speakerphone phone, bonehead.
Oh, my bad.
[Tammy] Chill. Let's
just talk about this later.
(Tammy sighs)
(Patrice sighs)
(birds chirping)
(no audio)
(Jennifer inhaling)
Life's getting better, Jennifer.
Not for me, Merill, not for me.
I get it. It's not easy
losing someone you loved.
Love? Come on.
Merill, that little b*tch never liked me.
(sofa rustling)
I forbid you to talk about
our daughter in such a way.
Our daughter?
I'm the one who raised her.
You didn't care about anything
except for your fancy car.
How dare you talk
about me in such a way?
I'm gonna talk about
you however I want to
because you are just as
guilty in this as I am.
How many times did I tell
you that she was playing
with matches, and you still insisted
that she play in the
tree house of all places?
Are you trying to say
her death is my fault?
All I'm saying is that
sometimes being a man
is about accountability.
Can you just stop talking in riddles?
(hand thudding)
It's your fault that our fu-,
it's your fault.
(footsteps plodding)
Come back here.
This is not only on me.
How dare you?
(Merill sighs)
(pensive music)
[Student] And my shoe was tied.
(students chattering indistinctly)
(pensive music continues)
(footsteps plodding)
We so could have lasted
longer in the game.
[Coral] I know, right?
Then what happened? You
think you're the sh*t, Amber?
What was that?
(pensive music continues)
Calm down.
(birds chirping)
(pensive music continues)
Today's your lucky day.
(feet shuffling)
(pensive music continues)
(birds chirping)
(pensive music continues)
(birds continue chirping)
(pensive music continues)
(footsteps plodding)
(gentle classical music)
(footsteps continue plodding)
(sofa creaking)
(laughs) Mm-mm, Merill.
Get on over here.
(hand thudding)
Sit by me.
You know what wine does to me.
Well, in that case.
(Jennifer laughs)
(feet pattering)
Mom, Dad, I wanna show you something.
[Jennifer] Amber, get out of here.
Can't you see your father and I are busy?
Now run along. You heard your mother.
(gentle classical music continues)
(footsteps plodding)
(sighs) She's turning into such a brat.
You know, I caught her playing
with matches the other day.
Why didn't you say anything?
It slipped my mind,
but she's just turning into such a,
just so hard to control.
(pensive music)
Anyways.
(birds chirping)
(pensive music continues)
I love you, Pegasus.
You're the only family I have,
(birds chirping)
(pensive music continues)
Even though you're a stuffed animal.
Look, Pegasus.
(lighter rasping)
How'd this get here?
Oh.
(lighter thudding)
(brooding music)
Help, help, Mom, Dad, help.
(fire crackling)
(entity vocalizing)
(brooding music continues)
(gentle classical music)
(Merill sniffing)
Jen, are you cooking something?
Mm, no.
(pensive music)
I was gonna ask you the same thing.
[Amber] Mom, Dad, help.
Mom.
(dramatic music)
(dramatic music continues)
(footsteps plodding)
(birds chirping)
(sighs) Why are you upset?
Can't be that little heifer.
It's time for my homework assignment.
[Coral] Are you sure?
Positive.
Uh, maybe we should think through this.
I have.
Are you with me or against me?
(birds chirping)
(pensive music)
With you.
(determined music)
(footsteps plodding)
(determined music continues)
(footsteps continue plodding)
(determined music continues)
'Kay, you know what to do, right?
I was made for this.
(Coral screaming)
(brooding music)
(brooding music continues)
(child laughing)
(brooding music continues)
(brooding music continues)
(door clattering)
(bottle clanking)
(door clattering)
(brooding music continues)
Hello.
(pensive music)
You look like you've seen a ghost.
Miss me, Mommy?
It can't be.
Merill, Merill.
Help.
Where you're going, you can't be helped.
This can't be happening. (Gasping)
Where do you think you're going, b*tch?
(brooding music)
Please, please, baby,
baby, don't, don't hurt me.
You don't wanna hurt me.
What would you do if
you were in my shoes?
Please.
f*ck you.
(brooding music continues)
Enough, okay.
(Jennifer whimpering)
Where do you think you're going?
(knife rasping)
(Merill groaning)
(Coral laughing)
(Merill continues groaning)
(Jennifer gasping)
(dramatic music continues)
(windpipe crunching)
(body thudding)
(dramatic music continues)
(Merill groaning and sobbing)
(Coral laughing)
(dramatic music continues)
(brooding music)
(footsteps plodding)
(crickets chirping)
(pensive music)
Good job.
It's not finished yet.
Then finish it.
(fire whooshing)
Here you go.
(fire roaring)
(glass shattering)
They'll be dead in less than a minute.
Now let's go.
We've got school in the morning,
and we need to get
(building clattering)
Our beauty sleep.
(pensive music)
(fire crackling)
(students chattering indistinctly)
Class, I need your attention.
Stop talking.
Give Amber a round of applause.
(class applauding)
Job well done.
You see no need to hesitate.
All you have to do is believe.
Thanks.
You did a great job as well, Coral.
(class applauding)
(phone ringing)
(birds chirping)
Are you watching the news?
Is that how you're
saying hello these days?
(sighs) I'm sorry. Where are my manners?
How are you doing?
Good, and, yeah, I did watch the news.
Why do you think I'm calling you?
It was Merill and Jennifer's
house that was vandalized.
- The Johnsons?
- Yeah.
I don't know about
them getting vandalized
and then m*rder*d.
This seems personal. The
person probably knew them.
Yeah, whether they knew
them or not, this was brutal.
(sighs) I know you're upset.
(knife clanking)
Honestly, I'm kinda scared.
I mean, what if they come
after me and my family next?
(sighs) I hope not.
What are you gonna do?
I think I need to
upgrade my security system
and put in some cameras.
Good idea.
All right, yeah,
that's what I'll do then.
All right, yeah.
(phone clanking)
(Tammy laughing)
(laughs) It's so funny.
(TV character speaking indistinctly)
Mm, mm, mm, mm.
(lips smacking)
You know, maybe we need a little space.
What, what do you mean?
Um, you know, I feel like
we're smothering each other.
What?
We, like, never snuggle.
We barely even touch or kiss each other.
If you really need some space,
then I guess I could just
Move out.
Okay, well, you said it, not me.
I'm dealing with my
emotions after the baby.
I feel depressed.
I believe you.
Look, I'm trying to be here for you.
Is that why you've been
confiding in another woman?
What are you talking about?
- Sharon.
- Oh, God.
I'm not stupid.
You know, people talk.
(TV characters chattering indistinctly)
(Mike grunts)
(bedding rustling)
(TV characters chattering indistinctly)
Girl, your house used to be so cozy.
Now it just feels so, ooh, cold. (Shivers)
Ooh.
- I know.
I feel like Mike and I argue all the time.
Do you think he knows about Jake?
No.
(phone buzzing)
Good, 'cause if he found
out, he's gonna k*ll you.
(Patrice laughs)
(light hissing)
(child laughing)
(dramatic music)
What was that?
(dramatic music continues)
(nails screeching)
(dramatic music continues)
What the heck was that?
I don't know, but it's
been happening a lot.
Happening a lot? What's been happening?
Noises and strange voices
just at random times.
Oh, oh, hell no.
Yeah, I gotta go.
(dramatic music continues)
Here, baby.
(dramatic music continues)
Crash the scene, trying to be me
But never really ever
felt like the right me
(fists thudding)
I'm just trying to be seen
(phone ringing)
Hi, Jake.
What's up, Iron Buns?
(Tammy laughs)
Oh, my, I want you to...
I can't wait to see you.
Well, you won't have
to wait much longer.
I've been a bad girl.
(laughs) Need me to spank you.
(Tammy laughs)
Don't threaten me with a bad time.
What's my name?
Jake the Snake.
(Jake imitates snake hissing)
(Tammy laughs)
(child crying)
(sighs) I better go.
All right, I love you.
I love you, too.
(child crying)
(phone clanking)
(child continues crying)

(dramatic music)
(Tammy screaming)
(dramatic music continues)
(dramatic music continues)
(crickets chirping)
(pensive music)
Hey, honey, can I talk
to you about something?
Yes, sh**t.
Well, ever since the Johnson murders,
I've felt really uneasy.
Me too.
What do you think we should do?
What can we do?
Uh, gotta do something.
We can't just sit by and, everything okay?
Yes, continue.
All right, I think we need
to upgrade the security system.
Okay.
(bedding rustling)
What, just like that?
You usually put up more of a fight.
I'm good with whatever you
think we need for our safety.
(crickets chirping)
Okay then, guess it's settled.
(bedding rustling)
(Mike sighs)
(birds chirping)
(traffic whooshing)
Hey.
What took you so long?
(sighs) Sorry, I got
behind on my calendar.
[Server] Here's your tater tots, ma'am.
- Oh.
- Here you go.
Aw, my favorite.
You okay? You look beaten down.
Thanks for the compliment.
Talk.
I know she's cheating.
I was talking to her the
other night before bed,
and she was texting someone.
Well, what's wrong with that?
It was her whole attitude.
She went from distant to aloof,
and, oh, it's the only
way I can explain it.
Are you sure?
Positive.
Well, what proof do you have?
'Cause that's how
she used to look at me.
Her voice would just drop.
Oh.
Oh, man.
(water pattering)
(water continues pattering)
(child crying)
(water continues pattering)
Hold on, Annie.
Mommy needs to finish washing her hair.
(bottle thudding)
(water continues pattering)
(child crying)
(hand thudding)
(child continues crying)
[Coral] Here you go.
(brooding music)
Mike, is that you?
- Guess again.
- Oh, my God.
Who's in here?
Can you wash my hair, too?
(Tammy screaming)
I thought so.
(Tammy continues screaming)
What's the matter? Cat got your tongue?
(Tammy screaming)
(Coral laughs)
(Tammy gasping)
Mike.
- What?
- You hear me?
(pensive music)
(Tammy whimpering)
(pensive music continues)
(pensive music continues)
Look, we can reschedule this session.
Uh, it's obvious you
have a lot on your mind.
Why is my daughter messing
with me in my dreams?
Excuse me.
You heard me.
It's normal. We never stop
mourning our loved ones.
Mourning?
Yes.
[Tammy] As, as in...
[Dr. Bradley] Your daughter, death.
What are you talking about?
Your daughter, Coral.
(somber music)
She passed away a few years ago.
It can't be.
[Dr. Bradley] Yes,
I'm telling the truth.
No, explain how she goes to school
and, and how she takes
care of her baby sister.
I can explain, okay?
Unfortunately, you're on medication,
and your trauma has
interfered with your reality.
No, I don't believe
a word you're saying.
You are a sicko, and you just want me.
You're delusional, and if I were you,
I wouldn't make accusations
that could get you readmitted.
You would do that?
I would protect myself at all costs,
like you should have your daughter.
(Tammy sobbing)
(pensive music)
(foot thudding)
(footsteps plodding)
Hey, you all right?
Look like you need to get
something off your chest.
Is it true?
It's what true?
I didn't let something happen
to her little girl, right?
You know she's no longer with us,
and you're taking it harder than anybody.
You are an as*h*le. You're such a liar.
(somber music)
You knew I was sad, and
you made a fool outta me.
[Mike] How is this my fault?
What are you gonna do, hit me again?
(somber music continues)
(Mike sighs)
(somber music continues)
(crickets chirping)
(footsteps plodding)
(gentle music)
(bedding rustling)
Mike.
I apologize.
I love you.
(lips smacking)
(gentle music continues)
I miss you.
Do you?
[Tammy] Yes.
(Mike laughs)
(lips smacking)
(gentle music continues)
(hand thudding)
(lips continue smacking)
[Mike] Mm.
(lips smacking)
(gentle music continues)
What's the matter? Can't sleep?
What? (Whimpering)
(dramatic music)
I want some sugar.
Help.
No one can hear you.
You know, there's an old
saying amongst the people.
A wh*re has no real value.
(Tammy whimpering)
(Coral laughing)
(Tammy continues whimpering)
(Coral continues laughing)
(Tammy continues whimpering)
(Tammy gasping)
(Tammy whimpering)
(pensive music)
(Tammy continues whimpering)
I'm losing my mind.
(Tammy whimpering)
(pensive music continues)
(pensive music continues)
(Coral sighs)
How's it going, sis?
Let's just say I made my presence felt.
Bet you have. Now, when do we end it?
Can I help?
You don't have the ba*ls.
(students laughing)
[Student] That's hilarious.
Ooh.
(students continue laughing)
Shut up.
(dramatic music)
(engine puttering)
(pensive music)
Guess the joke's on me.
(sighs) You two have
to sit this one out.
It's personal.
Aren't they all?
Yeah, but this one hits different.
(engine puttering)
(phone buzzing)
- Hello.
- Hey.
Hi, what are you doing?
Nothing much, just stressed.
[Karen] I would be, too.
Are you busy this weekend?
No, I don't have any plans yet.
Can you watch Annie?
No offense, your house is kinda creepy.
$250.
Deal.
(sofa rustling)
(pensive music)
[Patrice] What you up to?
Nada.
Ooh, you sound happy.
What? Uh, why would you say that?
I haven't heard that thing
in your voice in a while.
What thing?
Oh, don't be dumb, h*.
(laughs) I am not.
Look, I'm gonna be gone
for a couple of days.
Can you please check on Annie for me?
I do not fully trust Mike and Karen alone.
Uh, you are such a weirdo.
How are you gonna be out on a booty call
but be worried about your husband?
But fine, fine, I'll do it, I'll do it.
That's my girl. You're
a true ride or die.
(Patrice laughs)
(door clattering)
(pensive music)
(gravel crunching)
(pensive music continues)
(leaves rustling)
(pensive music continues)
(latch clicking)
(leaves continue rustling)
Is that the best system you got?
Oh, absolutely.
Ah, read your reviews, very impressive.
Thank you, for an
additional $37 a month,
I can install cameras in each
of the rooms of the house.
Comes with advanced motion detectors
with AI technology. (Laughs)
The system can detect a ghost. (Laughs)
How long do you think
this is gonna take?
Um, about a few hours
and another hour to run
the system for errors.
You're good?
[Installer] The best.
All right, let's do this.
(bag rustling)
(footsteps plodding)
(pensive music)
I wish you were here.
Me too, when can I see you?
Sunday night, Tammy will be back.
Cool, don't you think it's strange
she always goes places without him?
- No. (Laughs)
- I do.
All parents don't get
along like your parents.
I know, but something is
strange about that family.
Sunday night, Tammy will be back.
Are you high?
[Karen] What?
You're repeating yourself.
I'm just a little tipsy.
[Chad] Is that all?
And high, it's just a weed pen.
I don't want you like that around him.
You flirt when you get wasted.
(laughs) Don't worry.
He's cute but much too old.
(Chad sighs)
(gentle music)
Hush, little baby
Don't say a word
Do you remember this song?
Hush, little baby, don't say a word
Mama
Oh, my God, so cute.
Okay, let's sing it together this time.
Hush, little baby, don't say a word
Mama's gonna
Hush, little baby
Don't say a word
(brooding music)
Mama's gonna buy you a mockingbird
And if that mockingbird doesn't sing
Daddy's gonna buy you a diamond ring
And if that diamond ring doesn't shine
(laughs) Don't be a party pooper, Karen.
Coral?
(brooding music continues)
You know, smoking is
bad for your health.
(Karen gasping)
Help, please, help.
Help, please, help.
(Karen gasping)
(dramatic music)
(light hissing)
(brooding music)
(brooding music continues)
(light hissing)
(Karen gasping)
(Karen screaming)
(ground rumbling)
(light hissing)
[Coral] Did you think
you would get away?
I'm sorry. Please let us go.
- Why are you sorry?
- What happened to you?
Aw, you're sorry?
Yes, I truly am.
Then why didn't you come to my service?
Um.
You're only sorry because you're scared.
(dramatic music continues)
Come on. There's no audio?
Stupid glitchy security system.
What?
(dramatic music)
Who's that little girl in there?
Am I crazy?
(gravel crunching)
(birds chirping)
(leaves rustling)
(birds continue chirping)
(footsteps plodding)
(hand knocking)
(footsteps plodding)
(door clattering)
- Get over here.
- Mm.
(Tammy laughs)
(door clattering)
(flowers thudding)
(lips smacking)
I missed you, Apple Bottom.
(Tammy laughs)
I missed you more, Jake the Snake.
So we gonna do it here, or
you gonna invite me inside?
- Absolutely, Stud Muffin.
- Mm.
(footsteps plodding)
(door clattering)
(Karen grunting)
(pensive music)
(tape rustling)
(pensive music continues)
[Coral] Mm?
(Karen grunting)
(brooding music)
(Karen whimpering)
(cups clinking)
[Karen] (grunts) Help,
help, help, help, help.
Coral?
Daddy, come join our party.
[Karen] Help.
(fist thudding)
(Karen grunts)
You're not my daughter.
No, no, she died.
(laughs) That makes us even.
You never were a dad.
You're just a weak pheasant.
[Karen] No.
Let her go.
She had nothing to do about,
with what happened to you.
Oh, well, unfortunately, you
don't get to make the rules.
(Karen moaning)
(Coral laughing)
(pensive music)
(lips smacking)
(both moaning)
How
(lips smacking)
was
(lips smacking)
your
(lips smacking)
day?
It was okay.
(lips smacking)
You okay?
You seemed excited to
see me. What happened?
[Tammy] Nothing.
(lips smacking)
Is it something I did?
No.
(Jake inhaling)
Something's off.
(clothes rustling)
(shoes clanking)
(jacket rustling)
(door clattering)
Let's play a game.
(eerie music)
I don't wanna play your stupid games.
You know, your anger
issues have gotten worse.
(brooding music)
He's weak, Annie.
(Mike gasping)
You don't have to do this.
What do I have to lose, Mike?
I'm already dead, and you
were supposed to protect me.
Daddy. (Sobbing)
Baby, baby.
(Coral continues sobbing)
Sweetie.
(Coral laughing)
You thought it was that easy?
(Mike groaning)
Wait. Just let her go.
Fine.
(body thudding)
Today's your lucky day.
(tape rasping)
(Karen gasping)
(feet pattering)
(Mike gasping)
(pensive music)
Do you even know your wife?
Do you know what she did to me?
(hand thudding)
- So handsome, Jake.
You ain't too bad yourself.
What do you mean bad?
Stop being sensitive.
(Tammy laughs)
What's your favorite thing about me?
Your a*s.
(laughs) I knew you were gonna say that.
So you don't like me for my mind?
Oh yeah, that too.
That too.
- Mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
Mile is gonna be home within an hour.
[Jake] All right, a quickie then.
(Tammy laughs)
(pensive music)
Um, um.
I'm gonna walk you downstairs.
Oh, this isn't fair.
Patience is a virtue.
(pensive music)
Goodnight, honey.
Mommy loves you.
Goodnight.
(bedding rustling)
(pensive music continues)
What did you see?
Nothing.
It's okay. You can tell me.
You're not gonna get in trouble.
You, you kissed Jake.
He, he said he loved you.
Honey, that's not what you saw.
You're imagining things again.
(clothes rustling)
(pensive music continues)
(bedding rustling)
Mommy, why did I sleep
so much this night?
Honey, you were tired.
Okay.
(Tammy laughs)
Why are we here?
To play a game, sweetheart.
Do you remember hide and go seek?
Yeah.
Then you're gonna love this game.
You can't find me.
I bet I can.
One, two, three, four.

(Jake sighs)
Am I losing my touch?
That's what I get from messing around
with a married woman, dammit.
(Jake sighs)
(birds chirping)
(birds continue chirping)
(bag clattering)
(latch clicking)
(pensive music)
Wait, what?
[Tammy] Go back inside, Rattlesnake.
Rattle?
You heard me.
[Jake] Whatever's gotten
into you, I like it.
I know, right?
We're just gonna act like
we didn't fight at all?
(Tammy laughing)
(Tammy and Coral laughing)
(light hissing)
(Coral laughing)
What the hell?
What's the matter, you slimy serpent?
Jake the Snake.
How is this possible?
Told you I'd be right back.
And how is it possible
you break up a happy home?
Well, I take that back.
What goes around...

(pensive music)
[Operator] 911, what is your emergency?
[Caller] Hey, I'm walking my dog
past one of those rental
homes on Ninth and Essex Road.
Car been there for days, and
a weird odor coming from it.
You might wanna check it out.
Jackson, come on.
(door thuds)
(pensive music continues)
(pensive music continues)
Jackson.
Come on.
(footsteps plodding)
Come here. We got a body.
(pensive music continues)
(pensive music continues)
You got a pulse?
No pulse.
He's dead.
(Det. Jackson sighs)
(pensive music continues)
[Det. Jackson] Should I call it in?
Call it in.
(jacket rustling)
(pensive music continues)
(footsteps plodding)
(pensive music continues)
Mike? Michael?
Where are you?
Where the hell have you been?
What happened?
What do you mean what happened?
You're the one who's keeping
secrets and acting crazy.
(light hissing)
It's happening again.
It's happening because of you?
Now it's my fault?
Everything is always my fault.
Oh, come on. Quit the bullshit, Tammy.
Who the hell is Jake?
Who's Jake?
The Snake, dammit.
You know, this is your fault.
All you ever do is work and yell at me.
Is that really how you see me?
(light hissing)
Hello, Mommy.
(dramatic music)
It looks like your luck has ran out.
What?
(brooding music)
We have some catching up to do.
Remember that wet night?
(Tammy gasping)
[Tammy] Please Just let me go.
Dad, get Annie and
get far away from here.
Coral, no.
I said get the hell up here now,
or I'll k*ll all of you.
(light hissing)
Take my sister and go.
(brooding music continues)
(whimpering) No.
(brooding music continues)
(frame clattering)
(Tammy whimpering)
(brooding music continues)
No, please.
You'll have a 10-second head start.
If you can outrun me, you win.
Please don't do this.
[Tammy] I will do anything.
Nine.
Well, what about your sister and father?
[Coral] Eight.
You can't k*ll me.
Seven, six, five,
(Tammy whimpering)
Four, three, two.
(dramatic music)
(keys jangling)
(brooding music)
Did you forget something, Mommy?
You're always forgetting something.
Please, stop.
You don't have to do this.
Neither did you.
(Tammy gasping)
(brooding music continues)
(feet pattering)
(brooding music continues)
(brooding music continues)
(Tammy whimpering)
(Tammy screams)
Oh, my God.
(brooding music continues)
No.
(Tammy screams)
(wings fluttering)
Help, Coral.
Coral, please help.
See what happens when
kids die badly, Mommy?
This could have all been avoided.
(Tammy whimpering)
(brooding music continues)
(vocalist singing in foreign language)
(water whooshing)
(laid-back music)
(laid-back music continues)
Here I am in these waters
Nobody's son, just their daughter
Here I stand
In the shadows watching by
Hold my hand
See my face, no, I don't lie
Come with me, and
you'll see how I feel
How my life was
It really was real
And it ended so quickly
Right before I could be
What I was meant to be
Can you see
This coral reef
Oh
This coral reef
(laid-back music continues)
I was scared
Just a frightened little girl
But I reawakened
In this messed-up world
And I cried
Shed some tears, chucked it back
And let all of my might
Into this little thing
Called revenge
That's how it is tonight
Can't you
