DELUSION

So how has this caught fire?

Um, not sure. It's not
the right time for forest fires.

Not this time of the year.

It's much more likely that it was arson.

You see here? The ground's damp.

[man 2] Hmm.

Inspector, something here.

Come on through.

[camera shutter clicking]

[Pete] The victim's teeth
were also taken out.

[medical examiner] Cases like this
have happened in other provinces.

And in every case,
teeth were missing from the bodies.

[officer on radio] Forensics.

We found skeletal remains
near this large tree wrapped in cloth.

-Copy, over.
-[officer 2] Copy that.

[eerie music playing]

[cell phone vibrating]

-What's up, Wan?
-Wat.

I've got Dad with me.

Can I take him to stay at your place?

Uh-- What? Hang on. What happened?

We can't leave Dad with Mom anymore.

Sis, calm down. Tell me what happened.

I think Mom k*lled Uncle Sak.

[suspenseful music playing]

[knocking at door]

[woman] Doctor, the next patient's here.
Shall I send her in?

Just give me a second, okay?

[woman] Sure.

Okay. Just stay calm.

Don't take Dad too far away yet.

An unfamiliar environment
might make him delirious.

Just find a place you can stay nearby.

I'll be there as soon as I can, okay, sis?

Just take it easy there.

Okay. I'll go to the lake house.

Come soon, Wat.

You again.

A fire broke out on your property.
Did you know that?

Did it?

If I'd known, I would have put it out.

[scoffs]

Listen to me.

Human remains
have been found on your land.

You can't just keep saying
you don't know anything.

Remains?

Okay.

The hut that burned down
and the human remains

were both found on your land.

As of now,
your entire family are suspects.

You all need to come the station.

Where have your husband and kids gone?

I don't know.

They've left me here alone.

[Pete sighs]

Come on, Nee.

INSPECTOR SASIDIT

CALL ENDED

[beeping]

[tense music playing]

[eerie music playing]

There was a corpse in your backyard.

You're saying you have no idea.

It's big.

Someone could have got lost

or dumped a body there.

How would I know?

No one goes in there these days.

[scoffs] What about
this tin full of teeth?

Can you explain how that got there?

[Pete] These are all the cases
from the last 20 years

that I think are connected.

In the first ten years,

the victims were all found
within the same province.

MYSTERIOUS SKELETON DISCOVERED

And the ten years after that,

bodies with missing teeth were found
across multiple provinces.

POLICE TO SOLVE
MISSING PERSONS CASES

All before Mued and Sak.

And our main suspect?
There is no record of him moving.

Are you sure they're connected?

[Pete] I'm sure
the person we're looking for

committed all of these murders.

Well, if you need a warrant,
then just let me know.

Get this wrapped up.

The news is already spreading.

[door opens, closes]

[dark music playing]

[Aim] That's Mom's car.
Is she meeting us here?

Aim! Just stay here.

I'll go talk to your mom first.

I'll bring her out to see you.

I miss Mom.

Aim, don't. Stop!

Stay here until I get back, understand?

If you disobey…

you won't see your mom again.

[tense music playing]

[ominous music builds]

What's that?

What's that?

-[screams]
-[grunts]

[panting]

Ah.

-You piece of sh*t.
-Ah!

You think?

Your family's money was made
with my family name too, you know?

Without my father's help,

would you have even
got those plots of land

to squeeze your money out of?

That family name you have…

it's hardly worth a thing.

And all…

you ever wanted from me
is my family's money.

You piece of f*cking trash!

-f*cking leech!
-[gasping]

[both grunting]

You f*cked her right here, yeah?

You make me sick.

So what, huh?

You're gonna expose me?

You wanna ruin me, huh?

[objects clattering]

Don't you love your son?

Don't you love Aim?
Do you want to humiliate him?

Do you really think I'm that f*cked up?

I would never do that.

But you're right about one thing.

It's always been about the money.

But it didn't come for free.

I traded my life…

I traded all my dignity, so…

I'm taking what I earned.

Have your divorce…

but Aim comes with me.

Your family

can't raise a decent human.

Just look at you.

-That's…
-[gasps]

Enough!

[thud]

[gasping]

-[grunting]
-[thuds]

[coughing]

You f*cking leech!

[Wan shrieks]

[Yote grunting]

[Wan choking]

-[grunting]
-[choking]

[thud]

[gasping]

[suspenseful music playing]

[gasping softly]

-[grunts]
-[splattering]

[distant voice] Please, Dad! No! No.

-[grunts]
-[thud]

[grunts]

[gasping]

[gasping]

[shrieks]

[whimpering]

[whimpering continues]

Aim!

Aunt Pannee.

If you don't come clean,
you'll be tried as an accomplice

and go to jail.

[tense music playing]

[cell phone vibrating]

WANRUDEE

Hello?

[Wan] Please. Please help.

Dad took my son away again.

Okay, stay calm. Where are you now?

Aim.

Aim.

Aim.

[voice breaking] Aim.

Aim.

Aim.

[leaves rustling]

[suspenseful music playing]

[leaves rustling]

[gasping softly]

Pa?

Come out.

[sniffles]

I won't hurt you, okay?

[dramatic music playing]

Pa.

[gasps]

[ominous music playing]

[siren blaring]

[footsteps approaching]

Spread out and start looking.

They can't have gone very far.

[tense music playing]

[music swells]

[music stops]

[motor boat revving]

[engine shuts off]

[water splashing]

Hey, sit down. Sit!

LOEI FORWARD GROUP

Go back and sit.

He hasn't woken up

[tense music playing]

I said sit down.

[sighs]

[sighs]

[breath trembling]

Mom didn't k*ll Sak, sis.

She almost did.

She didn't finish.

[whimpering]

[Sak] Nee.

Help…

Help me.

[Pannee cries]

[footsteps approaching]

[gasps]

[Sak grunts]

What are you, Phii Pong?
Eating a dead rat?

I'm not Pong. I wasn't.

Then why are you poking it with a stick?

Phii Pong has possessed you.

I'm not Phii Pong. I wasn't eating it.

-[grunts]
-Eat it!

Get off!

[grunting]

Eat it, Phii Pong!

[straining]

Eat it!

[both grunting]

Eat it!

[grunts, groans]

[somber instrumental music playing]

[Wat grunts]

Hey!

What?

Don't!

[frogs croaking]

[gasps, shrieks]

No!

[screams]

Let me out!

Let me out! I'm not Pong!

[echoing] Let me out!

[ominous music playing]

[frogs croaking]

Hey!

Hey!

[grunts]

[both straining]

[groans]

[gasps]

-[thud]
-[squelch]

[groaning]

[breath trembling]

[coughing softly]

[eerie music playing]

[panting]

[grunts]

[panting]

[whimpering]

You remind me of Dad
when you make that face.

Why?

[whimpering]

Do I disgust you?

[continues whimpering]

I do get it.

I never wanted to be like this.

But once I started,

I couldn't stop myself.

It feels so good, you know,

getting rid of the scum.

What the hell?

It feels like I'm getting revenge

on that little sh*t.

Getting to choose who gets to live…

[grunting]

and who dies.

[Sak] Why the hell did he keep this?

You know he didn't mean to.

[Wat] But Uncle Sak
was too damn smart, sis.

When he found out I'd done it again,

he took the body
and made it look like a Phii Pong attack

to trick the villagers.

He set himself up as a shaman,
making money off them.

What a piece of sh*t, right?

[sighs]

[dogs barking]

So Mom and Dad sent me off to Bangkok.

They said that the city would cure me.

[choking]

But I was never gonna stop.

MOBILE MEDICAL VOLUNTEER UNIT
BO KLUEA, NAN

Hello there.

REGISTRATION

And once I became a doctor…

You can wait at the back, okay?

…it was even easier
to find more scum like them.

You're by yourself?

[patient] Yes, I'm alone.

MOBILE MEDICAL VOLUNTEER UNIT

Getting to choose who gets to live

and who dies.

All these scum

are all the f*cking same.

Just different faces.

[dark music playing]

Every single tooth

that I pulled from their bodies…

was a reward I gave to myself.

[dark music intensifies]

[music fades]

[rattling]

[sighs]

[tense music playing]

[music fades]

[sighs]

And did you know,

they didn't plan to send me
to Bangkok alone.

You were supposed to go, too.

But Uncle Sak…

blackmailed us all about what I was doing.

Dad had to give him the money,
the land, everything.

But it was never enough.

Then he k*lled that kid named Mued…

[grunts]

…and used his teeth
to blackmail our family for more money.

[sighs]

But you have revenge.

So thank me.

These secrets are all yours.

But what do you want from me right now?

Well…

Mom would never say anything.

And Dad,

he's got one more chance
to protect his family.

So that leaves you.

[whimpering]

I won't tell anyone.

Promise, I won't.
I won't say anything. Honestly.

I swear.

I'm not lying, Wat.

They all say that
when they're about to die.

Why should I believe you?

[continues whimpering]

[groans]

Hey!

[suspenseful music playing]

Narong, where's your grandson?

-[man 1] Hey, hey, uncle.
-[man 2] Uncle!

-Uncle!
-Uncle! No, no, no.

-Uncle! Uncle!
-Come back here.

What the f*ck are you doing, huh?

Take him.

Inspector.

You find them?

No sign of the kid, sir.

Do you wanna die?

If you're gonna sh**t me, just sh**t!

[cries]

Have you called for the boat yet?

It's on the way, Inspector.

Pull the trigger.

Come on. Do it!

I'm not afraid to die. Just do it!

sh**t!

[sobbing]

[music fades]

[g*nsh*t]

[dramatic music playing]

Rescue! What's your ETA?

-Hurry up!
-Hurry up!

Come on. Come on!

CHIANG KHAN RESCUE UNIT

[music fades]

[groans]

Aim.

Aim.

[breath trembling]

Ms. Wan, please try to stay calm.

-Please just stay calm.
-My son. Where is he?

Just relax.

Your son is okay.

The nurse will bring him in shortly.
Don't worry.

MRS. WANRUDEE KUDPRATHUM

Do you remember how you got on that boat
at all?

Mm.

I blacked out.

I don't remember at all.

You and your son had Midazolam
in your blood.

It's an anesthetic.

It causes temporary memory loss
after injection.

You maybe dizzy and disoriented,
it's normal.

But do you really not remember?
Who were you talking to

right before you passed out?

[eerie music playing]

[sighs]

[whimpering]

[sighs]

Mom tried to protect her son.

Like you would.

You'd do anything for Aim.

[sighs]

If you had cared that day and helped me,

maybe I wouldn't be like this.

Who knows?

[grunts] Sis, help me!

Help me, sis.

Help me, Wan!

Wan!

I told you to eat it!

Wan.

Help me, Wan!

Wan!

Go on. Eat it.

[grunting]

Whatever. It was a long time ago.

But right now,

for once, try acting like my sister.

[sighs]

[whimpering]

[Wat grunting]

Be still!

[sighs]

[exhales]

I didn't see anything.

Okay.

INVESTIGATION DIVISION

You k*lled your son-in-law, didn't you?

[sighs]

Tell me why you did it.

But he hurt my daughter.

I had to save her.

[pensive music playing]

What about the Phii Pong murders?

Are you also behind them?

-Sir! Sir! Excuse me, sir.
-[reporters clamor]

Please, sir, tell us the situation.

Uh, for now, we're bringing in
all units that are nearby here

to pursue every possible lead
on this k*ller.

But we admit that

serial k*ller cases in this country
are not common.

And I would like to, um, reassure everyone

that we're doing
everything we can right now.

Have you got any suspects yet?

-Do you have any suspects?
-[man 1] Yeah.

-[man 1] Tell us.
-[woman] Any suspects?

[man 3] Sergeant,
what's going on? How's the kid?

[officer 1] He's still unconscious.
Give us a hand here.

[man 1] Come on,
give us a hand here, Lieutenant.

Gentle. Easy, easy. All right.

CHIANG KHAN RESCUE UNIT

Inspector.

Here's the records.

Every province Dr. Wat lived in
matches the crime scenes.

If it wasn't the cops,
it was the shaman around here.

Just repeating the same thing for years

while nobody bothered to look
for the person who k*lled my son.

Back then, how do you remember him?

I don't.

You're all in it together, aren't you?

You're trying to take my land off me.

If a spirit wants you dead,

then you're dead anyway.

Doesn't matter how you die, Inspector.

Or maybe you're lying.

Which means I can't help him.

If you think it was my husband,
then arrest him.

Mom.

[tense music playing]

[reporter] So do you have a suspect yet?

Yes, do you have any suspect?

Any suspects?

-The suspect, sir?
-Do you have a suspect or not?

-We have.
-Yeah? Who?

-Tell us more.
-Who is it?

We have to wait for our forensics team
to finish their work,

a lot of these cases are very old.

Can you at least tell us
if it was someone who lives local?

-[man] Right.
-[woman] Yes, tell us.

[woman] Someone from around here?

-[man 2] Is it a local?
-I can't answer that.

[reporters clamoring]

So let me reiterate.

Our officers are working
as hard as they all can, okay?

You can be certain of that, okay?

Thank you so much.

[reporters clamoring]

[man 3] Sir, can you just answer
one more question?

THREE MONTHS LATER

What is it, huh?

The village chief asked me
to give you that.

For his son's ordination.

Come with me?

Think of it a farewell party
before you transfer back to Bangkok.

Mm.

[door opens, closes]

[soft music playing]

How you doing?

Okay.

Now you're no longer a teacher,

what will you do?

Are you still investigating me, hmm?

[sighs] I haven't really thought about it.

Taking him to school and other stuff
will fill all my time.

Terrible traffic in Bangkok.

Mmm.

And you?

Well, my place is far from the station.

The traffic will get to me, too.

[chuckles]

Inspector…

I really appreciate you saving me.

If not for you,

anything could have happened.

I was just doing my job.

I wasn't saving you.

Hmm.

But you can't protect him forever.

Someone will find out.

Find out?

You know what I'm talking about.

[gentle music playing]

[sighs]

-Please sit. Right.
-Hello.

Mm. Mm.

It's the price we agreed on
after deducting your debt, correct?

[door closes]

Pa.

Aim and I are moving to Bangkok.

This means I won't visit you,

not often.

Dad, so you must be well behaved.

Mmm.

I'm not mad at Mom and you
for what you did.

You believe that you're better than us,
Wan, but you're not.

[ominous music playing]

[thud]

[gasping]

Help me.

-[thud]
-[splattering]

[thud]

[music stops]

I'm leaving.

I'll come back to visit.

Please take care of your family.

Don't let anyone hurt us.

I sold the land.

It's all I could get, Mom.

You heard from your brother?

I'm leaving.

Don't you tell anyone
about what he did, okay?

He didn't mean to do it.

I think he's sick.

If you get in touch him, tell him…

to come and see me.

Ma.

Could you love me more?

Hmm?

As much as…

you love my brother, Mom?

[gentle music playing]

I'm so sorry…

for letting you believe
that I love your brother more.

He, more than you, needed me.

I knew

that you could get by on your own.

["Warm Eyes" playing]

Mom.

So we're moving far away.

Aren't you going to miss Grandpa,
Uncle Wat, and Grandma?

I probably will.

But I'll be fine.

I've got you.
