Abduction: The Harvesting (2024)

[bunniefuu]

So Monique says that Peg

is having a midlife crisis.

- She's trying to recapture her

faded youth,

something like that.

Monique says that people

live too much in the past.

"Time's arrow goes in one

direction, my dear."

I mean, look, she has a

point, but...

I don't know. I think

that's a little extreme.

Peg could go to the salon

once in a while.

She asked about Jack again.

She said Valerie's getting

emotional.

I mean, it was prom not

a wedding for God's sake.

I just think everybody should

move on.

- He's sleeping in again.

What?

He's sleeping in.

He'll be fine.

He'll be fine if he

doesn't have a 7AM class.

College isn't like high school.

He's on a dual scholarship.

Expectations will be higher,

- Richard...

he'll be fine.

I just don't understand why he

has to go

to a college 3000 miles away.

2,968 miles. And you know why.

He has to be his own man.

But he's just a boy.

That's why he has to go.

Mother knows best.

Yes, she does.

He's not as sure about

it as you think he is.

Did he say that?

He didn't have to.

I'll be late tonight.

Don't let him sleep all day,

please.

Men don't sleep in.

Hey, kiddo!

Come in.

Richard!

- They're here.

- Woohoo!

Sorry.

Eight miles. Eight g*dd*mn

miles.

But they did come in a little

early

so these are some of the

older labs. Is that okay?

I like the old labs.

Okay, it's Lab Seven.

Oh, and hey, before I forget,

we're gonna have a little

get together the day

after the day after tomorrow.

Just the team and spouses.

- Monique will give Lily the

details.

Richard...

We're in the history books!

So. How's it going?

How do you feel?

Good?

I'm good, Mom.

Good, but you're not

great. Are you... great?

I'm "great."

Jack, I know these feel like the

best years of your life.

And they are.

But high school,

it-it's where you

make friends until graduation.

College is where you

make friends for life.

How would you know?

You never went to college.

Hey, pal, go easy on your old

mom.

I'm sorry. It's not that

I don't want to go.

It's just that none of my

friends are going out of state.

Toby's going out of state.

Janelle, Marcus and Bri's

kid, what's his name?

- None of my real friends.

- You mean Valerie?

- It's-it's not just her.

- Jack, you have an

obligation to your abilities.

- I've always told you that.

- We get what we get,

but when we get so much more

than everyone else,

we have to see it through.

Don't we?

Yeah.

- Yeah?

- Okay?

Yeah, okay.

You're gonna love it, kiddo.

The whole world is gonna open up

for you.

- You're gonna love it!

Later, Mom.

- Wait!

- What's the rule?

Mom, I haven't had a track

meet in four months.

- You sleep in because you're

out all night doing --

I'm not doing anything bad.

I don't wanna

hear about it!

Doesn't really matter.

The rule's still

the same.

What's the rule?

- Mom...

- What's the rule?!

Hydrate.

Let's leave tonight.

I can't. My mom would freak.

She's gonna freak anyway.

Do you care about her or me?

I care about the both of you.

She hates me.

- She doesn't.

She doesn't think I'm good

enough for you.

She doesn't think anybody's

good enough for me.

Okay, look...

we don't have to do this.

You live your life and I'll live

mine.

- See you in 50 years.

- Val...

Chill.

We're going to do this,

but we gotta do it my way.

Let's meet at the airport next

week.

We'll tell everybody once

we get to where we're going.

You promise?

I promise.

What about your mother?

I guess she'll have to stop

living my life

and start living her own.

- What the f*ck?

What the hell?

Jack?

Jack?

Jack.

- Jack?!

Mom...

- Jack! Jack!

Come on, Jack! Get up!

Jack. Jack. Wake up. Wake up.

- Jack...

- what's wrong?

- I didn't know

who else to call.

No, no. Richard?

He-he would just say

I'm making things up

or imagining things.

Okay. Okay.

I'll see you soon. Okay.

Bye.

- Monique.

- Thank you for coming.

No place I'd rather be, my dear.

- Did you feel wind?

A paranormal breeze?

Or was it only temperature?

It was only temperature.

It was the whole room.

When I touched him, he was ice

cold.

I-I thought he was dead.

Mmm...

Frigid temperatures often

indicate a presence.

Something or someone

out of place.

- "Someone." Monique, you know

I don't believe in ghosts.

Ghost spirit essence. These

terms have no meaning.

There are forces invisible

to the naked eye.

They're all around us

every moment of every day.

Some are light, some are dark.

It might be that Jack has become

more sensitive to these forces.

Did he find anything recently

or was he given anything?

No, I don't think so.

- Nothing. Are you sure?

Well, I can't be completely

sure.

- Did anything else unusual

happen prior to the event?

Um....

Yeah, just Richard.

He didn't come home and then

he left early

in the morning.

So I didn't see him.

That's unusual, I guess.

That's not unusual.

Hubert did the same thing.

Everyone's in a tizzy

over these core samples.

Jack needs to be on a plane in

six days.

Trust Monique, my dear. We'll

get to the bottom of this.

Everywhere I go, I come

prepared.

Impromptu dining...

allergic reaction,

cardiac arrest, et cetera...

afternoon napping...

- Ah!

Spiritual cleansing.

That is the tip of our spear.

- Oh, sh*t!

- Wait!

- Lily, wait!

Jack?

Are you okay?

- I command the unseen

forces to leave this room.

I command the negative entities,

low vibrational energies

and agents of non-benevolence

to leave this room!

I enjoin the forces of light

to vanquish evil

and leave this room!

Jesus f*cking Christ...

Richard, can you please

come home? It's urgent.

Are you okay?

- I'll live.

What the hell just happened?

Hell is the operative word,

my dear. Whatever that was,

it wasn't Jack.

- A dark force

has entered his body.

No, no, no. - You saw what

happened with your own eyes!

No, no, no. He's, he's

supposed to go to school and,

and in a week.

And he has to pack.

Look at me, my dear.

Look at me. Look at me.

Jack's life is in danger.

This is an old friend.

He doesn't have a phone.

He wouldn't pick one up if

he did. This is the address.

He should at least

be able to point you

in the right direction.

Wait a minute, are you leaving?!

My presence here is an

antagonism more dangerous

for everyone, including Jack.

You'll have more luck without

me. You're his mother.

It's the strongest bond there

is.

I'll be in touch.

You can handle this, Lily.

You just told me

my son was possessed.

I don't think I can handle that.

- You'll have to!

And be careful of Richard.

He's a scientist. He doesn't

know how to fix this,

but he'll think he does.

Go! As soon as you can!

- Jack?

- Jack.

Mom...

Jesus, Jack. You look like

you ran a mile.

- Lily?

- Lily!

What the hell?

- I know what I saw, Richard.

- I mean, Monique got hit in

the head, for God's sake!

Monique is a drunk.

Wouldn't be the first

time she hit her head

after a few too many.

Maybe you're a drunk,too.

- You know I'm not.

Something is wrong with him.

- Our son!

He's got the flu.

- What happened to your hand?

- I, uh, cut it

on some equipment.

I have to go back to work.

Let him rest.

Jack.

It burns.

Oh God. What now?

Hi Mrs. Warner.

Jack's not feeling well right

now.

He's not? He was fine last

night.

Where did you go last night?

Nowhere.

I don't want you to

say anything to anyone,

but Jack May have caught

something contagious.

Okay? So I need to know

exactly where he was.

I assume he was with you.

Where'd you go? What'd you do?

And don't bullshit me, Valerie.

Okay, look, nowhere.

The same places we always

go to... The Habit, the mall.

Are you sure?

We-we drive around and talk.

You didn't take anything, eat

something, take a new drug.

No. - Don't lie to me!

- No, Christ!

You can't keep us apart.

Oh yeah. By this time next week,

Jack will be on the

other side of the country

with his whole life ahead of

him.

And you will be here with

your whole life ahead of you.

And that is just the way it is.

So I would go home, Valerie.

Jesus.

- It's not a matter of me

believing you

or not, Mrs. Warner.

It's a matter of protocol.

An exorcism is a last resort.

Psychiatric evaluation of your

son

and other members of the

household is the most

important thing --

- Monique...

Monique said that wasn't a good

idea.

How long have you known

Monique? Are you close?

- Yes. She was one of

the first friends I made

when we moved out here

six years ago.

Her husband is my husband's

boss.

- Monique is a beautiful soul

but --

Alright, how can I put this?

- She's a nut job.

I know. She means well,

but she's a nut job.

But...

this is real.

This is real!

I am not asking you to come over

and perform an exorcism.

I just... I want you to come

and see for yourself so that

you can tell me what

you think I should do.

I'll come by tomorrow

after Morning Mass.

Thank you.

My son's possessed but sure

let's wait till tomorrow.

m*therf*cker!

Hello?

Hello. Lily.

Is Monique okay?

- Yes, I think so. I don't know.

I'm still at work.

I'm sorry to call you directly,

but I'm trying to get

in touch with Richard.

Richard?

- He hasn't been in all day.

Are you with him now?

Uh, No, no.

Well, I was wondering if you

could have him call me.

There's been a development

with one of the

core samples we've got.

It's, uh, quite important.

Okay. Yeah, yeah, sure.

I'll call you when I see him.

- Thank you.

Uh huh.

Richard. Hubert's still at the

office.

I'm not here to see Hubert.

Oh!

Jack...

Biiiiiitch!

Jack! Jack!

Jack, come back to me. Jack --

- You never loved me.

Jack, come back to me.

- YOU NEVER LOVED ME!!

- JACK!

- COME BACK TO ME!

Mom, please leave...

b*tch!

c**t!

f*ck.

- Did you put this in his room?

Yes.

He doesn't need this.

- He doesn't have the flu,

Richard!

You're a doctor now?

No, I know my son.

Oh yeah. Do you?

I also know my husband

and he doesn't work late.

I'm working on a special

project from the head office.

Nobody here knows about it.

- Oh yeah?

Someone died at the drill rig?

Who told you that?

The Internet!

A day worker broke the

rules, came in contact with one

of the chemical reagents

in a storage shed.

It was...

a tragedy for his family,

especially his mother.

- She should have taught him

not to break the rules.

- But maybe she was

a rule-breaker too.

- I'm going to bed.

Hi, Peg. Jack's under the

weather.

I think you should come back

later.

You think your perfect son

is too good for my daughter?!

- I never said that.

Did Valerie say that?

Jack is an exceptional boy.

Nobody denies it.

But my Valerie,

she's an exceptional girl.

She's got heart. She cares about

people.

She just doesn't use

them and toss them aside.

She's loyal, she's intuitive

and she knows what's going on

here.

What's going on here, Peg?

You pushed Jack his entire life

just

so you can push him away as

far away from here as possible!

What kind of mother does that?!

The kind that doesn't believe

everything their kid says.

Their kids that didn't come

from Valerie, Lily!

Liar.

You're so young, so superior.

But you'll get old one day

and still be just as blind.

Jack and Valerie are planning

to meet up at the airport when

you drop 'em off next week.

They're eloping.

Liar.

- Oh yeah? Let's ask Jack.

Jack, go back to bed. Jack?

Jack! Jack!

- What-What's wrong with him?!

- Jack -- I told you he's sick.

- Oh!

- Jack, please....

- You can't do this.

- Jack!

Jack.

- Hello.

Hello.

Am I speaking to Jack?

Who else?

Okay, Jack. Okay.

My name is Father Jordan

and your mother wanted

me to come visit you.

Why?

She's worried about you.

- Do you think she should

be worried about you?

Of course not.

She said you've been

experiencing some

unusual things.

Like what?

- Can you make things move

without touching them?

I don't know.

- Oh, look at me, Jack.

Look at me.

You hurt your mother's friend,

Mrs. Blankenship.

I did.

Did you do that on purpose?

She's a dark force.

Do you know something about

her, something about her past

that you can see?

Maybe something about her

future.

You've obviously never met her.

- Does this bother you?

Should it?

Will you hold it?

- Jack...

It's okay. It's all right.

- Does the cross bother you,

Jack?

Not the cross.

- Then what's bothering you?

You.

You are bothering me.

You're a dark force, Father.

Now why would you say that?

- Jack! You're k*lling him!

It's what he wanted.

I think this is my fault.

Why would you think

this is your fault?

I read something somewhere that

- evil fills a void,

an emptiness

- in a person or a family.

It-it gives evil, ghosts,

spirits, demons,

- an opening.

I-I-I don't really know

about the ghost part but,

I do know generally that evil

will find a place where

love is lacking.

I don't love my son, Father.

- It's not that I don't want to

or that I haven't wanted to

give him everything. I have.

I've given him everything.

It's just --

- Isn't that love.

No! It-it's not! It's --

- I married Richard

when I was 18 years old.

And nine months later I had

Jack.

And I-I just...

You know what Peg was,

Peg was right.

I have been spending

his entire life

preparing him to leave.

- How f*cked up is that?

- I'm sorry.

Mrs. Warner.

I have been a priest

a very, very long time.

- There are two things

I know for certain...

your feelings are not the reason

why all of this is happening,

and your son is not possessed.

You were there! He-he

tried to k*ll you!

I-I cannot explain it. It-it...

It's the most fantastical

and terrifying thing

that has ever happened

to me in my life.

- He doesn't reference

Jack as if

Jack is a vessel

for something else

speaking through Jack.

- And he doesn't seem to be

speaking any other languages

and doesn't seem

to have knowledge

of past or future events

he shouldn't know.

He's angry,

but it's very, very specific.

It is almost as if he's

being inconvenienced.

- He didn't talk about

spreading evil

and destroying the world.

- He just wants to be left

alone.

Some thing has your son, Mrs.

Warner.

- But it's not one of my demons.

Is-is there anything, I mean,

anything you can think of

- that might have

happened recently

that seems out of the ordinary?

- Anything?

My husband, Richard.

He's-he's been acting

really strange lately.

How?

- I don't know. He talks

to me differently.

- He acts differently. He-he

stopped taking his medication.

Medication for what?

For his heart. He has

high blood pressure

and you know, he stopped

taking it for two days already

and he should really be in

the hospital, but he's not, and--

He knows what's happening with

Jack.

Are you sure about that?

Yes. Yes. Before this all

started, Richard disappeared.

He came back because I

saw him the next morning.

But he must have come home

really late.

And, and then the next day

Jack was like this and,

and Richard, he had a bandage,

something on his hand,

and then he stopped going to

work.

His boss called me.

So he leaves the house

and doesn't go to work.

- But where does he go?

I don't know.

- Well you have to confront him!

- Unless you think

confronting him

will put you and Jack in danger.

Don't you think

we're already in danger?

Then you must find another way.

Hello?

Hi, uh, this is Lily.

- Hello, Lily. Have you found

Richard?

No, um, but I was just thinking

that

the last time I saw him,

he had injured his hand

and I wanted to know

if you knew if he got hurt

at work or...

Well, I'm, I'm sure he didn't.

We take injuries pretty

seriously around here.

There's protocol and reporting.

- What if he didn't report it?

Why wouldn't he report it?

The last time we talked, you

mentioned something happened,

um, a new development

with a core sample?

- Well, it's, it's

pretty amazing,

but it's also highly classified.

Right, I don't need to know

any details. It's just,

I think that might be why

Richard is acting strangely.

Well, I haven't told him yet.

I wanted to tell him in person.

Well, maybe, maybe he

found out from someone else.

You know, he really respects you

and you've been such

a great mentor to him.

I think maybe he doesn't

wanna let you down.

Oh, that's ridiculous.

I'm really worried about

Richard.

Do you think that you could

just gimme a little hint

of what was in that core sample?

Well, I guess he's

gonna tell you eventually,

but we found indications

of water in the sample

and there was something else

there too.

- There was materials

from an asteroid.

An asteroid?

- I know. Isn't it fantastic?!

It's been sitting there waiting

for hundreds of millions

of years and --

Hello?

Lily?

I know she just showed up

at my door.

She had some nerve.

- Yeah. It was ridiculous.

Yeah, I know what you're doing.

- Yeah, her hair.

it still looks stupid.

Yeah, I-I don't think

I'm doing anything tomorrow.

- We do have to get Jack

ready for college, so...

Yeah.

- Did you put covers on him?

- Lily!

Huh? Yes?

Did you put the covers on him?

- I did.

Thank you. But it's

better if he's left alone.

I know that's hard to

understand.

Can you understand it?

Mm-hm.

I'll be back later.

- Hey!

- Slow down!

- Keep up!

I'm trying!

- Mom?

What's wrong?

- What's the last thing you

remember?

A man came to talk to me.

- Do you remember what he said?

He asked me questions.

Did you answer him?

I think so.

What did you say?

I don't remember.

He was upset with me.

I did something bad.

No, Jack. Nobody's upset.

And you didn't do anything bad.

I was flying.

Flying?

Through the air like Superman.

That's stupid.

No, it's not stupid.

Tell me more. What were you

doing?

I was high up. I could

see the whole world.

- I couldn't breathe. I

didn't need to breathe.

- I don't know

how or why.

Where were you going?

Dinner will be ready in 10.

Don't eat too much.

- He hasn't eaten in two days.

Go ahead, Jack. Eat.

No. That's enough.

Time to rest.

- Okay...

Why don't we just talk about

this?

Talk about what?

The trip.

I was thinking we could drive.

Drive?

Yeah.

It'll only take a week

and school doesn't

start until

the week after next anyway.

We can leave tomorrow.

We have the party

tomorrow night.

He doesn't wanna go to that.

I have work.

It can be a mother-son trip.

What are you doing, Lily?

I know it seems impulsive, but

it's okay

to do something spontaneous

once in a while, isn't it?

- Go to your room, Jack.

Stay.

- Jack!

I'm leaving, Richard.

I don't know what you did

or what the f*ck is happening

with you, but I am leaving

and I am taking my son

and if you try to stop me,

I'm calling the police.

If you call anyone!

I'll k*ll us all.

What the f*ck were you doing?

Lily.

I'm sorry.

- I'm sorry about last night.

I've just been under

a lot of pressure.

Don't f*cking touch me.

I scared you. I was

wrong to say what I said.

I'm so sorry. I shouldn't

have said it. It was crazy.

I've been thinking.

I think you're right.

I think you should drive Jack

across the country to school.

- You do.

- Yes, I do. But leave tomorrow.

- I need to see Hubert and

there's the party tonight.

It's very important to everybody

that we're there. Okay?

Okay, Lily?

I'll be back in a little while.

I love you.

- Jack! ... Jack!

- We have to go.

- I can't.

- Come on!

- Get up!

I can't.

He won't let me go.

- Lily! Lily!

- Lily!

- Lily?!

- Lily!

- Good morning!

- Hi Lily. We brought treats.

- I've Just been sick about our

misunderstanding the other day.

Peg told me all about it, dear.

So many misunderstandings.

It's hard to keep track.

How 'bout some coffee?

I may just be

an administrator, Aaron,

but I'm also the manager

of the budget,

which includes your salary!

Why the hell aren't you

at your desk?!

Why isn't anyone at their desk?!

What the hell's going on?!

Call me when you get this.

Where the hell have you been?

Working on a special project.

"Special project."

What special project?!

Would you please explain to me

what the hell's going on!

It's something I can't explain.

It's something I have to show

you.

Lily, how are you?

I'm.good.

Good? Good not great?

Are you great?

Where did you get this table?

Excuse me.

Hi. Hi Hubert?

- This is Hubert Blankenship.

- Hi, um, this is Lily Warner.

- Hello, Lily. How can I help

you?

Listen to me. Something

is wrong with Richard

and Peg and Monique.

Monique is at my house and

I think you need

to come get her.

- Nothing's wrong with anyone.

Lily.

You just need to wait there

until Richard picks you up

for the party.

You spoke to Richard.

He's worried about you. We all

are.

Lily... Lily...

Lily? ... Lily!

Lily... Lily... Lily!

LILY! LILY! LILY! LILY!

Excuse me.

Where are you going?

- Richard wants us

to pick something up

from the store

for the party tonight.

Come on.

Don't want to

disappoint him, do you?

Excuse me.

Lily!! Lily!!

Wake up!

WAKE UP!

Lily. Lily, what are

you doing?

Who are you?

I'm your husband.

- The f*ck you are!

Ah! You f*cking b*tch!

You're crazy.

Let him go!

I don't have him.

f*ck' LIAR!

Okay. Okay, okay.

- Okay.

Finally found your mother

instinct?

I'm taking him.

I don't care if I have to tie

him up and carry him out,

I'm taking him!

You'll have to k*ll him.

He's a part of us now, Lily.

And we're a part of him.

You wanted Jack

to leave the nest.

Well, he's leaving, boy.

He's going on quite a trip!

What about all that f*cking

possession bullshit?

Preparation to survive the

journey..

The core sample...

the asteroid...

It infected you! Your hand!

Infection is the wrong term.

Then what is the right f*cking

term?

Discovery.

A probe like billions of others.

Billions of years.

Billions of galaxies,

stars, planets...

Jack is a specimen.

One of the few on this

rock. You should be proud.

Many are called, but few are

chosen.

Laugh again... and I break

your f*cking JAW!!

- Feels good, doesn't it?

- All that pent up rage

towards your spouse?

- I'm sure you'd love to bash

his face in. Go on. Do it.

- Do it!

- DO IT!!

Lily, don't listen to him. Run!

Shut up, you pathetic f*ck!

They're gonna k*ll us all.

If you're lucky.

What do you want?

I'll do anything. Just don't

take him. Tell me!

What is it?!

What do you want?!

What does any

superior species want?

Resources, power,

- sustenance, technology.

Jack is none of those things.

- No, he's not.

He's a competitor.

An exemplary one.

Young, healthy,

intelligent, strong.

That is the criteria.

And for every strength,

there is a weakness.

- The first rule of w*r:

know they enemy.

We're just trying

to get to know you.

You don't know

how lucky you are.

It doesn't always go

this way for the mother.

But Jack...

he loves you.

It makes us,

SOFT!

I don't care

what I have to do.

You are NOtaking my son!

It's already done.

NOOOOOO!!

Doug!

Why is everybody

acting so weird?

Are they?

- You're acting weird. Ever

since you picked me up.

- Appetizer?

No... thanks.

- Go on.

Thank you.

- Appetizer?

- Where are we going?

Far away, I think.

Will we come back?

I don't think so.

As long as we're together.

Appetizer?

- No, I don't want another one!

Jesus Christ! What the hell

is wrong with you people?!

Appetizer.

- f*ck,

- RELEASE HER!!

- Mother...

- What are you doing here?

I'm trying to save my son.

You don't need

to save me, Mother.

But I do. And my son

doesn't call me "Mother."

I know he's in there somewhere.

Mom. I'm right here.

It's not what you think.

Not for me.

Not for Valerie.

We're the Travelers.

What about them?

What's gonna happen to them?

- The same thing that happens

to everyone here, eventually.

- They're inconsequential.

They don't matter.

Jack would never say that.

He just did.

I've seen so many worlds,

Mother, across so many eons,

yet I've never seen a species

do so little with so much.

There are no words in your

languages to say it properly,

but you should

consider it a blessing

to be consumed

by the universe.

Nobody thinks it's a

blessing to be consumed.

- Jack wants you to live

the life you want to live

while you still have time to

live it.

You need to let him go.

Jack!

What's the rule?

What's... the rule?

I love you, Jack.

From the moment you

were born, I loved you.

My love for you

is just so, so big,

I just didn't know it yet.

You are my son and nobody,

NOBODY can f*cking take

that away from me!

- Jack...

I love you.

- What have you done??!!

- Jack! JACK!

- Jack! JACK!

- That's the last of it.

Are you okay?

I think so.

You still don't remember

anything, do you?

No, not much.

Just, uh, floating?

How about you?

- I already told you five times.

Jack picked me up, like usual.

I woke up in someone's yard

with a bunch of dead people.

- Two of them

were my parents.

- I really don't want to keep

talking about this.

- I'm sorry, Valerie. Truly I

am.

- But I'm just trying to

find out how you survived.

Nobody survived.

Not even Jack.

Because you k*lled him.

I did what was necessary to

get the thing out of his body.

Christ, I'm not infected!

- Mom! Come on.

Okay. Well, if Valerie's

not infected with an alien virus

- sent here a billion years ago

to take over the earth,

- then I think it's time

we get on the road.

You can't win. Lily.

You can't stop this.

We'll see.

We know where you are.

And if we can't take Jack, we

will take someone eventually.

- What can you possibly do?

What every superior

species does...

- I'm going to abduct you.
