- [Gabe] Are you

ignoring me now?

- [Carly] Look, this is the

only town for 40 miles, okay?

I promise you this

is the safest place.

- [Gabe] What is it?

Where are you?

- [Carly] It's a little motel.

I'll get a room looking

down the main street

so you can see Andre coming.

- [Gabe] What the hell

is taking you so long?

(Carly scoffs)

(spooky music plays from TV)

(door gently bangs shut)

(bell rings)

- [Lewis] You should have

stayed in your room, Carl.

- [Carl] What about

all the other guests?

They're not in their rooms.

- [Lewis] What did you see?

- I think you know what I saw.

Did you k*ll someone, Lewis?

- Hello.

(loud TV sound effect)

(Bryce laughing)

Oh my God, I am so sorry.

I could not resist that.

Just gearing up for Halloween.

What can I do for you?

- I'm looking for a room.

- Sure.

How many guests?

- Just one.

- How long will you

be staying with us?

- I'm not sure yet.

Three days,

give or take.

- Okay, well I can actually

put you in room two,

right next door.

- Actually, could

you do me a favor?

I was hoping to get a

room on the north side.

I kind of wanted a view of

looking down the main road.

- Oh.

- It's an OCD thing.

What about number 10?

- Well, let's see,

10 has water damage.

I do have a reservation

already for room nine.

- Number eight?

- Yeah, sure.

- That will be perfect.

- Eight it is then.

(Bryce chuckling)

That is three days,

give or take.

Let's just call it $148.00

and that's cash only.

(money rustles)

Is there anything else

I can do for you, Miss?

- Heller.

And no, that'll do it.

Thanks.

- Alrighty.

There you go.

- Thanks.

- [Bryce] No turning back.

- [Carly] I'm sorry?

- The password,

for the WiFi.

No turning back.

All lower case.

(door creaks)

(door bangs shut)

- [Gabe] What the

hell is going on?

I can barely breathe in here.

- [Carly] Relax, I'm coming.

- We good?

- Yeah, room's clear.

Go.

Go, go, go, go, go.

(trunk slams shut)

- Yeah, yeah.

It's good.

(loud slap)

- m*therf*cker.

I am not losing my

son over this.

- Whoa.

- You on of a

b*tch, you hear me?

- Carly.

- I'm not losing my son!

(loud slap)

(Gabe groaning in pain)

- [Gabe] What the f*ck?

- Christ as my witness.

- Okay.

(article thudding)

Whoa, hey.

- Stop it.

Whoa, whoa!

Stop.

Please, just,

you're not losing your son.

(book thudding)

You're not losing your son!

Everything's fine.

Okay? Just -

- Don't you dare tell me

to calm down!

- Okay!

I'm not, I'm sorry.

All right? Just...

- And don't tell

me to take it easy.

(tense music)

- Okay.

We're okay.

It's safe.

We're safe here.

Everything's fine.

(tense music continues)

Nobody's losing anybody.

Nobody's taking anyone away.

Look, we got the room.

- I got the room.

- What?

I got the room.

- Yes you did.

You got the room.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I appreciate that.

I do.

Okay?

You got the room.

Thank you very much.

I appreciate it.

No one's gonna hurt you,

okay?

No one is gonna hurt you.

(soft music)

Got your nose.

(loud shove)

- No.

No.

- I gotta check the news.

Come on.

You happy now, huh?

- Hey.

(bag thudding)

Toothbrush, deodorant

and that Irish waterfall

shave cream you like so much.

- What's Mountain Refresher?

What is this?

- It's like Mountain Dew,

but for assholes.

(Gabe exhales)

So what the hell happened?

Gabe?

- I'd been out for four months.

Part of the requirements are

that I got a full-time job,

which is easier said than done.

I couldn't find sh*t,

and I started to get desperate

'cause they kept

threatening to send me back

if I didn't land something soon.

So I applied everywhere,

and I do mean everywhere.

Dishwashers, short-order cook,

warehouse job, custodial, right?

But even then you need a

background check, all right?

Or you gotta download an app.

I'm not gonna download

a f*cking app.

So I interview for

this snow cone,

- Shack.

The manager, he's

like 17 years old.

He says, I show potential.

Can you believe that?

He's gonna start me

at nine bucks an hour.

I'm making snow

cones and snickers

and keeping the place clean.

So I did it for about a

week and I worked hard.

All right?

I'm pumping the

syrup into the cups,

I'm handing out the cones

and the cookies

and all that sh*t.

They don't pay you

for two f*cking weeks.

All right?

I got no f*cking money, right?

Nobody f*cking, they

don't tip, right?

Who's gonna tip a 40-year-old

man in a f*cking snow hat?

Look, you know what?

Look, I take responsibility

for my choices in life, okay?

I know what consequences are,

but it's a two-way street.

Okay? Everybody has

lessons in life to learn.

And it's not just me, okay?

Not just me.

All right?

It's real sh*t with

real consequences.

And you gotta take the

opportunities as they arise.

Okay? I saw an

opportunity and I took it,

and I take

responsibility for that.

But I can't take responsibility

for what other people do.

Okay? That's their thing, okay?

Not me, you.

You gotta know, okay?

You see something going down?

You use your f*cking head man.

Use your f*cking head!

You f*cking lay low, or

you get f*cking hurt.

That's what f*cking happens!

Use your f*cking head.

You don't hero sh*t.

You don't f*cking

hero sh*t, for what?

For what?

See? That's why

people are so stupid.

They're so f*cking stupid.

All right?

Giving me a job.

f*ck.

You know what?

What you need is a

f*cking job, all right?

In fact, what you

need now is a life

because you're dead b*tch!

You're f*cking dead!

(dramatic music)

(water running)

That's how people get hurt.

Whoa, whoa, hey,

where are you going?

- I'm going home.

I'm tired.

I'll be back in the

morning with some food.

- Oh, okay.

Whoa, whoa, whoa Carly.

- Yeah?

- [Gabe] What's the

Wi-Fi, the password?

(dramatic music)

(car engine revs)

(dramatic music continues)

(phone beeps)

sh*t.

(Gabe exhales)

(phone rings)

- [Andre] Hello?

- [Gabe] What's up b*tch?

(Gabe nervously chuckles)

- [Andre] My man, you good?

- Yeah, yeah I'm good.

It's good, all good.

I checked into

the Skyline motel,

Carly texted you the address,

so it's number eight.

- [Andre] Yeah, my homie

got the clap there once.

(Gabe chuckling)

- Everyone's a comic tonight.

- [Toddler] Picture!

- [Andre] Hold on, daddy's busy.

Hold on. I know.

I'll come for you

in just a second.

Okay, Gabe, I've got

everything lined up,

but it's gonna take

a little bit of time.

There's going be a

lot of heat on you.

This is gonna happen fast

and you need to be ready.

- [Toddler] Ball. Play with me!

- [Andre] Okay, I'm almost done.

All right, I'm almost done.

All right now hold on, hold on.

- Who are you talking to, Andre?

- [Andre] That's my

daughter. I've got a kid now.

- No way.

- Yeah, Maria and I,

we have a little girl.

Man, it's different now.

Things are different.

Oh, is this for me?

Thank you.

Okay, baby, hey I love you.

Go talk to your mom.

Okay, look, Gabe.

- Yeah, yeah.

- [Andre] Man, your face

is all over the news.

You can't leave that

room for anything.

- Yeah, yeah.

Absolutely, man.

No problem, I'm good.

- [Andre] And when

I call, you answer,

until then, you're a

ghost, Gabe, a ghost.

I'll call you.

I gotta go.

- Okay.

(owl hooting)

(TV static crackling)

(car parking)

(car door slams shut)

(footsteps patter)

(keys rattle)

- [Voice] Oh sh*t.

Sorry, if anyone's in there.

(soft tense music)

(door gently bangs shut)

(TV static crackling)

(Gabe sighs)

(TV clicks off)

- [Gabe] There you go.

- Thank you.

- Thank you.

Hi.

- Yeah, so this is

not what we ordered.

She just wanted raspberry.

I'm not sure exactly

what that is, but,

just raspberry.

- I'm sorry,

what's wrong with this one?

- She wanted raspberry.

This is blue.

I assume raspberry's

red, so I don't know.

- Yeah, but this is

the raspberry one.

- Okay, you got blue raspberry

and you got normal raspberry.

We just want raspberry.

I get the mix up.

But, that's all we want.

She just doesn't want that.

- Okay, well there's

nothing wrong with it,

so I mean I don't...

- All right dude,

can we just be done?

Can we get our money

back and just be done?

- Well, hang on a second I mean-

- No, no.

Every time, I swear to God,

every time we come here,

there's something,

something goes wrong.

So we'd like to just,

get our money back

and just get out here.

- Okay, can you

hang on a second,

Chad.

- Hey, what's the issue, man?

- [Gabe] This man,

he says he doesn't.

Yeah, we just want

our money back.

We just wanna go.

He can't, he can't get it right.

He doesn't know

what raspberry is.

- It only takes a second, sir.

We can-

- [Customer] We don't care.

We just wanna go, so

let's wrap this up

and we're just gonna go.

- Oh okay.

It's okay.

You can just give

him his money back.

It happens sometimes.

- [Child] It's not that hard.

- [Customer] Hey,

listen to your boss.

Come on, let's go.

- [Chad] Gabe.

Gabe, wake up.

Something's happening.

(dramatic music)

(Gabe panting)

(water running)

(muffled sounds)

(muffled screaming)

(muffled gasping)

(suspenseful music)

(muffled gasps continue)

(cicadas buzzing)

(muffled gurgling)

(muffled crying)

(muffled gurgling)

(loud scream)

(door slams)

(door opens and closes)

(footsteps)

(suspenseful music continues)

(door knocks)

(Gabe breathing heavily)

(cicadas buzzing)

- [Tim] Dispatch, Alpha 433.

- [Dispatch] Alpha 433.

- [Tim] Can you show us code 38

at 112 North Springdale?

- [Dispatch] Affirm.

112 North Springdale Road

in Larsen City, 0827.

- And give us 20

minutes on this.

- [Dispatch] Copy.

- Did you know that cicadas

will hide out underground

for like 17 years?

- What?

- Cicadas.

They're like big, nasty,

grasshopper looking things.

- Yeah.

- They're kinda gross.

- I know what cicadas are.

- Yeah, well, they

come out of the ground

and just transform before

making so much noise

that it just

disrupts everything.

Like, people can't even sleep.

- Okay, I mean, I

didn't know that,

but I've also gone my

entire life without

needing to know it either, so.

- Seriously, some

people even call 911

and sh*t because they just

don't know how to react.

They wake up and the

trees are screaming.

These things are

dormant for so long

that people just forget that

they're there completely

and don't know what

the hell to do about it

when they come back.

- They have games on phones

like clashing warriors

and sh*t like that, right?

(Mike laughs)

- [Mike] Yeah, whatever man.

You wanna hear what

they sound like?

- No, I really don't.

- [Mike] Come on.

It's kinda cool.

No, I don't.

(cicadas buzzing)

(car whirring)

(car door's slams shut)

(door bell jingles)

(country music plays)

(drilling sounds)

(bubble gum pops)

- Hi,

how are you?

Somebody called and said

this guy came and stopped by?

- Yeah, he came in and

asked Jake for a job.

What'd he do?

- k*lled someone actually so...

- Really?

Oh my God.

Here we go again.

- [Tim] What do you mean again?

- Larsen.

This place is famous.

- Yeah, you mean, Pale Face?

- [Receptionist] Ah,

you've heard of him.

- Yeah, yeah,

no I think this guy's probably

a bit young to be him,

but my dad actually

knew Stephanie Phelps.

- No way.

- People still talk

about Pale Face huh?

- Oh yeah.

No way he's dead though.

I don't think.

- Okay I'm gonna

leave this here.

Did he leave a resume,

or anything at all, or?

- [Receptionist] Nah.

- Nah, he just came

by and took off?

If you think of anything else,

maybe just give me a call?

And...

(bag thuds)

(country music continues)

keep the change. Thank you

so much. You have a good day.

(door bell jingles)

- [Tim] Give me

that, you jackass.

(Mike laughs)

(menacing music)

(intense music)

(engine revs)

(tires screech)

(loud thudding)

(scream)

(Gabe screams)

(phone vibrates)

- Jesus.

(Gabe panting)

Hello? Hello?

- [Carly] Gabe.

(bad reception) I

look like an idiot.

- sh*t, sh*t.

Hang on, now hang on.

Hello?

Hello? Can you hear me?

(door knocks)

Holy sh*t.

Holy sh*t, there's

someone at the door.

- f*ck, it's me Gabe.

Open the door.

Okay, you really need to relax.

You know that?

- Holy sh*t.

Holy sh*t. This isn't good.

This place, this

place is messed up.

Okay?

We gotta find another place.

There's some weird sh*t

here.

- What?

What do you mean

there's weird sh*t?

- There's weird sh*t, okay?

I'm not spending another

night in this place.

Do you understand

what I'm saying?

- Take it easy.

- Okay? This isn't,

I don't know, man.

- Hey, look.

I got you some food.

(plastic rustles)

- What the hell is

this? What is this?

- You asked for a mask,

I got you a mask.

- Yeah, like a ski

mask, you know,

to cover my face.

- Everything's Halloween

right now, so...

- [Gabe] Are you f*cking

kidding me right now?

How about a plastic

jack-o'-lantern, huh?

To go trick-or-treating with.

Look, it doesn't matter.

I can't wait for Andre, okay?

I can't wait.

This place.

This place is messed up.

It's not right, okay?

Something happened.

- What do you mean

something happened?

- Something happened.

Something happened.

I don't know what it was.

Okay?

There was a scream.

There was this scream.

And it sounded like stuff was,

there, was struggling and

I don't know what the...

- Where, which room?

- Next door.

The room right here.

Here, here, right here.

Okay? In the room next door.

I don't know what it was.

I don't know.

Okay? She was, she was,

like stuff was breaking

and getting smashed.

This woman was trying

to get in here.

- A woman was trying to

get through the wall?

- No, no, the door.

- Stuff was smashed

outside your door?

- No, at first she

was at the door

and then, you know, she...

- What was she

doing at your door?

- She had the wrong

f*cking door! Okay?

She thought this door was

her door, but it wasn't.

She tried to key.

It didn't work,

So she went next door to her

room, which is next door.

- So what happened?

(soft tense music)

I don't know.

I don't know what happened.

- What did you do?

- What?

No, no, no.

Carly, I didn't do anything.

I swear to God, I

didn't do anything.

- No, Gabe.

You hear this woman,

she's in distress.

What did you do?

- I didn't do anything.

What was I supposed to do?

What am I supposed to do?

I was supposed to get

on the phone, call 911?.

I'm supposed to call the

f*cking cops over here,

you think that's what

I'm supposed to do?

Look, look,

I think someone hurt her.

Okay?

I think she was hurt.

I think someone k*lled her.

(tense music)

Whoa, whoa.

(door slams shut)

Where you going?

What are you doing?

- I'm going next door.

Someone has to

see if she's okay.

- No, no, no.

- You're garbage.

(door slams shut)

- sh*t.

(soft tense music)

(door knocking)

(muffled voice)

- Hi.

I'm sorry to bother you.

(muffled voice)

Last night I heard some

noises coming from your room.

(Carly and guest

talking indistinctly)

(guest laughing)

- [Guest] This is embarrassing,

but I got my foot caught on

my power cord to my computer.

(guest talking indistinctly)

(guest talking indistinctly)

- [Guest] You know,

it's really nice

that there are some

people out there,

(talking indistinctly)

(tense music)

(Gabe panting)

- Oh God.

(Gabe exhales deeply)

(car engine revs)

No, no, no.

(wind howling)

(Carly sobs)

(phone continues to

- [Announcer] New details

are emerging tonight

about a tragic hit

and run accident

that left one teenager dead

and an entire

community in mourning.

17-year-old Chad Leeland, a

senior at Northridge High,

was hit and k*lled at

work by an employee

trying to flee the scene after

stealing a large sum of cash.

All attempts to resuscitate

the victim were unsuccessful

and the victim

died at the scene.

The suspect, 43-year-old

Gabriel Gasbari,

who is currently on federal

probation for prior g*n charges,

remains at large, but is

now wanted for m*rder.

Law enforcement wouldn't

give any details

on the status of

the investigation,

but stated, they are working

closely with the U.S. Marshals

to apprehend Gasbari.

Anyone with further

information on his whereabouts

is strongly encouraged to

call police immediately,

as he's to be considered

armed and extremely dangerous.

Back to you, Jordan.

(items thudding)

(door squeaks)

(heavy footsteps)

(rustling plastic)

(muffled whispers)

(lamp crashing)

(muffled whispers continue)

(phone vibrates)

- Carly.

- [Carly] (bad reception)

Hey, look I want to...

- Can you hear me now?

- Yeah, how's it going?

- Not good, not good.

There's something

going on, okay?

In here and next door.

I gotta get outta here.

- Look, Gabe, I'm done.

That's why I'm calling.

I'm sorry about today.

And I'll always love

you, but I'm done.

Don't call me anymore.

- Oh, okay.

Whoa.

No, no Carly, please no.

No, I need you right now, babe.

I need you right

now, Carly please.

You gotta come and get me.

You gotta come and get

me outta here right now.

I mean, like right now you

gotta come and get me, okay?

I broke a lamp.

There's sh*t going on next door.

- Wait, you broke a lamp?

- Yeah.

- How did you break a lamp?

(phone ringing)

(dramatic music)

- The phone's ringing.

- What phone?

- [Gabe] sh*t.

The room, the phone in the room.

(phone continues to ring)

(ominous music)

sh*t.

It's the manager.

He's calling the room.

- Gabe, I'm getting

off the phone.

- No, no,

No, don't hang up.

Carly, he'll come in

if I don't answer it.

You have to answer it.

- [Carly] How can I-

- You have to answer it.

I'm gonna put you

on speaker phone.

- [Carly] What? No,

Gabe, I'm hanging up.

- I'm putting you

on speaker phone.

You do this Goddammit!

(phone continues to ring)

(dramatic music)

- [Bryce] Miss Heller, hello?

- Hi, I'm sorry, I

was in the shower.

- [Bryce] Oh,

sorry to interrupt.

Somebody heard a

crash from your room

and wanted me to check on you.

- Everything's fine.

I tripped and hit my head.

I may owe you for

a new lamp too.

- [Bryce] The lamp broke?

Are you sure you're okay?

Do you want me to bring

over a first aid kit?

- No, everything's fine.

It's just the bump on the head.

- [Bryce] Oh, all

right then, good, good.

Well, you sleep

tight, Miss Heller.

(soft dramatic music)

(phone receiver bangs)

- Gabe?

(Gabe breathing heavily)

(suspenseful music)

- Oh God.

Oh my God. Oh my God.

He's coming over

here with a lamp.

- [Carly] Gabe, listen to me.

- He's coming over here

with a f*cking lamp!

- [Carly] Gabe.

f*ck.

- Oh sh*t.

(door knocking)

- Knock, knock, knock.

Miss Heller, it's Bryce

from the front office.

I have a new lamp for you.

(door continues to knock)

Miss Heller, are you okay?

(keys rattling)

Miss Heller, I'm,

I'm coming in.

(key rattling)

- Whoa, hey, hey,

whoa, she just stepped out.

- [Bryce] Oh, I'm so sorry.

- Yeah, no she's not here.

- I apologize.

It's just that she

said she hit her head

and I wanted to make

sure she was okay.

- Yeah, no, she's fine.

She had to go, okay?

- Okay.

Good, good.

Well, there is another problem.

Her credit card

isn't going through.

I've been trying to process

the payment for the room

and well, the card was declined.

- [Gabe] Okay.

- It's probably my fault.

I probably entered

the address wrong.

- Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

That's okay. That's okay.

- I'm so sorry.

- It's 1000 North Windy

Drive in Diamond Fork.

- 1000 North.

(Bryce chuckles)

Oh, that would be

why, I had 1000 South.

Oh my God.

I do that more and

more these days.

It's the craziest thing.

I'm telling you, don't get old.

- Oh okay, that's good.

Thank you. Thank you.

- Now, if you could just

hand me that broken lamp?

- What?

- [Bryce] The one that fell.

(phone vibrates)

It's no trouble.

I can just come

right in and get it.

- No, no, it's okay.

It's okay, okay?

It's fine. It's great. The

lamp's not broken, it's fine,

okay?

- Well, it's just that I have

this replacement one here

and Miss Heller did

say that the lamp

did indeed break when she fell

and I'd rather just

clean up that mess.

- Look.

Miss Heller's not here right now

and I don't know where she is.

Get that through your skull.

She's probably over at some

dude's house right now,

bent over a coffee table

while I'm standing here

dealing with this sh*t.

I don't want any fresh towels.

I don't need a new lamp

and I don't wanna

talk to you anymore,

so just go away!

(door slams shut)

(phone vibrating)

(Gabe panting)

Andre?

- We've got Jesse

Gabriel Gasbari.

Both parents are deceased.

He's got a brother

in Los Alamos.

I gave him a call.

I guess they haven't

talked in years.

Had some kind of a falling out.

Honestly, it doesn't

really surprise me.

But he does have a

couple of ex-girlfriends.

(police radio traffic)

- Carly Phelps.

- Carly Phelps?

- Yeah.

- Why does that name

sound so familiar?

- She's got a record.

With us? Or just in general?

No, general.

Okay.

- Nothing violent, luckily,

but not great.

Possession with intent.

Child endangerment

and solicitation.

(police radio traffic continues)

- Does she have

any other family?

- [Mike] Yes, she

does have a child.

Boy, age seven.

She lost custody

of him last year.

No surprise there.

- Of course she did.

- So he's in foster care now.

She gets visitation

if she's being good.

- You said she's

where, Diamond Fork?

- Diamond Fork.

- Okay, and where are we?

- It's only about 50

miles east of here.

What do you think?

You up for a drive?

(distant train horn)

- [Tim] Carly Phelps, U.S.

Marshals, come to the door.

(door knocking continues)

Carly, we're not here for you.

Just come to the door.

(door knocking)

(bird squawks)

(menacing music)

- Mike, we got blood!

(door creaks open)

- Exigent enough?

- Yeah.

(dramatic music)

Clear right.

- [Mike] On me.

(suspenseful music)

- Clear.

- On me.

- [Tim] Bed clear.

- [Mike] Clear.

(suspenseful music continues)

- What the hell happened here?

- Dispatch, Alpha 433.

Can you expedite locals

to our last location?

- [Dispatch] Are you code 4?

- [Tim] Code 4, but

please expedite.

- [Dispatch] Copy.

- [Tim] So there's

blood all the way

tracked all the way

up to the bedroom.

We haven't found anyone though.

No bodies, no nothing.

And the same thing with our guy.

I don't know if this is

tied, but it's weird so.

- The neighbors actually

three doors down,

said they saw a man in a mask

last night, walking around.

(police sirens wailing)

- [Tim] Guy in a mask?

They didn't call you.

Nobody says anything?

- Maybe any other day,

but it's Halloween.

(camera shutter clicks)

- They're taking it, so.

- So he k*lled her?

(punches table)

Goddammit!

(suspenseful music)

(keys rattle)

(phone vibrates)

- Andre!

Andre.

Andre?

- [Andre] Not cool, bro.

- Andre, I'm so sorry, bro.

I am so sorry.

Okay, the reception

here is sh*t.

Okay, you called and I

called you right back.

I swear to God, I

called you right back.

Look, bro, I'm ready to go.

Like right now, I'm ready.

- You must be real

f*cking busy in there.

- No way.

No way, I did just

like you said bro.

I did just like you said.

I have not moved.

I haven't talked to nobody.

- [Andre] I don't know.

Maybe you did, maybe you didn't.

I call you, you don't answer.

And now you're ready to go?

- Yeah, right now! Right now!

Like let's go. Let's do it!

- [Andre] I'll pick you

up at eight o'clock.

It's five o'clock now.

That's in three hours.

eight o'clock.

- That's great.

That's great, bro.

That is great.

Thank you, Andre.

Thank you so much.

Thank you. Thank you.

- [Andre] And Gabe?

- Yeah?

- Answer your f*cking phone.

- I will.

I swear to God I will.

(dramatic music)

Yes.

(gentle music)

(Gabe laughing)

(dramatic music)

(door slams shut)

(banging noises)

- When I was eight years

old, I went camping.

My dad liked to camp and

we did a lot of fun stuff.

And it was good.

And on the last day, we're

getting ready to leave,

and we're packing up the car.

And I forgot this folding chair.

So I grabbed the

chair and I come back

and the car's not there,

and it's just gone.

And I'm thinking, you know what,

they're going to get something

pick something up and

come back, or what?

I didn't know.

So I'm waiting,

and waiting, you know?

and after a while

I start thinking,

You know, maybe this is like

punishment for something,

You know, maybe I

did something wrong?

I didn't know, I

didn't understand.

So I wait and,

I waited all day.

And eight hours later

the car comes back,

and my dad, he says,

"Get in the car."

So, I get in the car

and it turns out

that they didn't go

to pick something up.

They headed home and they

got about halfway there

and when they look

in the backseat

and they saw that

I wasn't there.

So they, you know, turn around.

How can you be driving

three and a half hours

and not know that your son's

not in the backseat of the car?

What kind of person

forgets an 8-year-old boy?

Well, it turns out

that I wasn't punished.

I didn't do anything wrong.

They just forgot.

- [Chad] I don't care.

(Gabe breathing heavily)

(water running)

(spray bottle)

(Gabe continues to

breathe heavily)

(phone ringing)

(Carly's phone

ringing and vibrating)

(dramatic music)

- [Voicemail] Your

call has been forwarded

- to an automatic

voice message system.

- [Carly] Hey, you've

reached Carly Phelps.

Leave a message and

I'll call you back.

(Gabe sobs)

(footsteps approaching)

(menacing music)

(plastic rustles)

(plastic continues to rustle)

(menacing music continues)

(Carly's body thuds)

(phone vibrates)

(dramatic music intensifies)

(phone continues to vibrate)

- It's for you.

I'll get it.

- [Andre] Gabe, where

the f*ck are you?

- It sounds important.

(phone thuds)

(phone smashing)

(Gabe moans)

(menacing music continues)

(Gabe sobs)

Hey, hey.

I want you to think

really

carefully

about how you answer

these questions.

Did you,

or her

happen to say anything

to anybody

about what happened here?

What you saw?

What you heard?

I can't,

no.

I'm gonna assume

your answer is no.

Call me crazy, but I don't

see calling the cops as a,

as an option for you.

(Bryce chuckling)

In fact, I can't imagine

a worst set of

circumstances for you,

Gabriel.

We saw you on TV.

Told my wife, we had a genuine

celebrity in our house.

A God damn TV star.

You know and it wasn't really

hard to piece together.

(Gabe moans)

It's just funny.

Why would someone

who worked so hard

to remain hidden,

not be able to mind their own

God damn business?

I don't know.

Of course,

you'll be the only real

suspect in her death.

And then you'll

just go on the run,

never to be heard from

again.

Sound good?

(Gabe breathing heavily)

All right then.

(stabbing)

(Gabe screaming)

(Bryce thudding)

(lamp crashing)

(Gabe moaning)

(dramatic music)

(head hitting door)

(Gabe shouts)

(Gabe thuds)

[Bryce] Where you going?

(Gabe shouts)

What the f*ck is your problem?

This should have been easy.

But you f*cking TV

stars have to come in

and complicate things.

We had your story written!

(Bryce breathing heavily)

It was that easy.

And we're gonna stick with it.

We're gonna f*cking

stick with it!

(music softens)

(Gabe's heart beating)

(Bryce trips)

(stabbing sound)

(tense music)

(soft music)

(Gabe laughing hysterically)

(soft music continues)

(music builds)

(soft music continues)

(car engine whirs)

- [Operator] 911 emergency.

Hello?

Hello?

(water running)

(water shuts off)

- You can come out now.

You answered the door.

- I did.

I told him this would happen.

(Michelle sighs)

- Why?

Why her?

What did she do?

- She cared.

(door knocking)

Well, hello.

- Hi.

I'm sorry to bother you.

I'm staying next door.

And

are you okay?

- Well, good heavens.

- I just,

last night I heard some

noises coming from your room

and I wasn't sure if

it was the TV, or?

- Oh my goodness.

No it was not the TV.

It wasn't the TV.

This is embarrassing.

But I got my foot caught on

my power cord to my computer.

I smashed the whole damn thing.

I'm such a klutz.

You are so sweet.

- I figured it was

something like that.

I just wanted to make

sure you were okay.

- Yeah, I'm just fine.

I appreciate you asking.

You know, it's really nice

that there are some people

out there that still care.

- I do.

- Oh my God,

you are so sweet.

- I'm glad you're okay.

- Bye now.

(door closes shut)

(muffled screams)

We should have let him

k*ll the both of you

as soon as we knew.

- Who are you?

(night sounds)

(footsteps)

- I'm the reason you

don't sleep at night.

(menacing music)

I'm the thing under the bed.

The eyes in the closet.

I'm that shadow in the corner.

I'm the legend,

the myth.

I'm the thing children

whisper about.

You know that sound?

That screech that you hear

in the middle of the night?

That's me.

You know who I am, Gabe?

I am the mother of

all scary things.

(cicadas buzzing)

Bye bye now.

(tense music continues)

- [Tim] U.S. Marshals

warrant service!

- [Mike] Gabriel Gasbari.

If you're here make

yourself known!

(knife stabbing)

- [Marshal 1] Bed clear.

- [Marshal 2] I got closet.

- On you, Mike.

- [Marshal 2] Closet's clear.

- [Mike] Shower clear.

(dramatic music)

(knife stabbing)

All clear?

- Clear.

(dramatic music intensifies)

(knife stabbing)

(breathing heavily)

- sh*t.

(ominous music)

(ominous music continues)

(police sirens wail)

- Oh, I don't think I told you.

It's Michelle Coleman.

Common spelling, C-O-L-E-M-A-N.

Yeah and you know, honestly?

I don't really

know when he left.

I mean, once they pay,

(Michelle laughs)

I don't really

keep tabs on them.

I mean, we are cash

only, so you know how

it goes.

- So, Michelle.

So, Michelle, right?

Just going back to the

first question though.

- Yeah.

- At any point while

that car was here,

did you see her at all?

(paper rustles)

- Oh no.

No, it was just him.

He was the only one,

yeah it was just him.

I've never seen her.

I didn't know he was wanted.

Do you think that he

did something to her?

- You know, it's one of those

things I can't get into.

I'm not trying to be

a jerk, or anything,

but you never know with

these things, you know?

If you see anything,

if anyone says anything

or anything else, just

please gimme a call.

And that being said,

I genuinely do

appreciate your help.

I know it doesn't

seem like a lot,

but when people cooperate,

it makes a lot of difference.

- Oh, well I am

so happy to help.

- Okay.

- [Michelle] I'll let you know.

- Thank you, you have

a good night, ma'am.

Nice to meet you, okay?

- Oh, and happy Halloween.

- I'm all right, it's late.

- Oh, come on.

You know you want one.

There you go.

Yeah, okay.

- Thank you.

- Okay, bye now.

(ominous music)

We're not safe here anymore.

We did the one thing we

said we weren't gonna do!

(menacing music)

They're gonna come back.

(truck whirring)

(music playing softly)

- Is it good?

You enjoying yourself?

- Good pie.

- What, are you six?

It's breakfast.

- We doing this?

- Doing what?

- Come on, man.

You always do this

when you're pissed.

- I'm not pissed.

I'm tired.

Okay, you remember I was

telling you about my dad?

So he was a deputy

out here back when

these people started

going missing.

It just reminds me there

was this girl he dated

who was one of the

ones who disappeared

and they never found her.

They never found

any of them, right?

And it just always bothered him.

Like I remember, even as a kid,

I would hear him

up at night talking

to my mom about it sometimes.

And I don't know,

it's just weird.

- You think it's all tied?

- No, I don't think it's tied.

It's not what I'm saying.

I'm just,

Gabriel was here

yesterday, right?

We knew he was there.

What, we miss him by an hour?

- He's not that smart.

You know, we'll catch him.

- I know he's not that smart.

That's my point.

He's not that smart.

So where is he?

How did he get away

from all of us?

And all bullshit aside,

I don't think he meant

to k*ll that kid.

So if he didn't mean

to k*ll the kid,

then why did he k*ll Carly?

- I don't know.

Maybe Carly was

gonna turn him in?

- And then on top of that,

the local cops were saying

they saw the guy in the mask

walking around and then

we find this white mask

in the hotel room.

- Maybe Pale Face is back?

(coffee trickles)

Oh God.

- I'm so sorry.

Are you serious?

- Huh?

- You think Pale Face is back?

- No, we're looking

for a missing person

and we really can't discuss it.

I'm sorry.

- Okay.

Thank you.

- Thank you.

(gentle music continues to play)

- Yeah nice going, as*h*le.

What do you think

this is a joke?

You think I'm

making this sh*t up?

- Okay.

He clearly left an impression.

- Yeah, no sh*t!

It's the same thing over and

over and over again here.

Somebody goes missing

and everyone's,

oh hey, it's the

biggest thing ever!

And then what?

Some time goes by and

people stop giving a sh*t,

until the next one happens.

And then they're all,

oh, thoughts and prayers.

Guess who went

missing this time?

We're all just jaded and faded.

I don't know.

- You gotta live, brother.

- I don't know.

I just heard them

over there talking.

[Waitress] Look, I wasn't

trying to upset anybody

- It's not Pale Face!

That'd be crazy, right?

(cicadas buzzing)

(soft suspenseful music)

(victim whimpering)

(soft suspenseful

music continues)

(victim crying)

- [Bryce] This will work.

But from now on,

only people from around here.

(menacing music)

- [Michelle] Go ahead.

Just like we showed you.

(menacing music intensifies)

(victim sobbing)

(victim continues to cry)

(victim breathing heavily)

(menacing music continues)

(victim sobbing)

(knife stabbing)

(victim screaming)

(stabbing continues)

(door creaks open)

(dramatic music)

(soft ominous music)

(soft ominous music continues)

(ominous music continues)

(music intensifies)

(door knocking)

(Michelle hums)

- I'm so sorry

that it's so late.

Oh my goodness,

how embarrassing.

Well you see, I've

run out of gas

of all things and at this hour.

I mean, it is late

as the Dickens.

And, well, my phone is

dead, so I was wondering,

could I come in

and use your phone?

- Yeah, sure, come on in.

- You, are so sweet.

(menacing music)

(cicadas buzzing)
