Thanks, Ma.

It's beautiful.

Can't say I don't
do nothing for ya.

But is there any money left?

I'm taking care of things.

You've spent it all,
haven't you?

[clank]

Maybe you'd like me to
kick you out of the house...

and then you can see what
it's really like out there.

Is that what you want?
Huh?

No, Ma.

I want to stay here with you.

Stop your ranting.

You're making my
bloody headache worse.

Ma!

I'm late for work.

Nothing, Ma. Nothing.

Well, I'm going to the shops.

You can wash those
sheets while I'm out.

[knocking on door]

Hey, how you going?

Can I use your phone?

My car died.

Um...
We don't have one.

You don't have a phone?

- It's not working.
- Ah.

Hey!

Did we go to school together?

'Cuz you look really familiar.

Please. Can you just go away?

[clock ticking]

[slurred singing]
You gonna kiss me, baby...

What are you doing up?

Couldn't sleep.

Where's the food, Ma?

Quit pestering me.

Ma!

If you won't give me any money,
why don't you let me get a job?

Well, how many
times have I told you?

It's a dangerous
world out there.

Very, very dangerous.

Now let me have a nice
relaxing drink...in peace.

Haven't you had enough?

Ahh!!!

Don't you ever
f*cking talk to me like that!

[snoring]

[birds chirping]

Hey, darl.

that sausage in your mouth?

Hey, come for

We won't bite.

What do we have here?

She's looking for
some action, mate.

C'mon guys, leave her alone.

What's the matter with ya?
It's just a bit of fun.

You on your way home, beautiful?

Whacha been up to
all night, darling?

Maybe she's a vampire.

Ooooh, you can suck
on my blood, baby.

I've got something better
than blood for you to suck on.

[laughing]

[intense music plays]

?

- She's mine.
- She's not yours.

You should be very, very afraid.

[door squeaking, closes]

[gasps]

Where the hell have you been?

I went to the toilet.

[scoffs]

You went to the toilet?

What do you think I am?

A f*cking idiot?

Where the f*ck were you?

Where?!

I went to get something to eat.

You left the house!

I was hungry, Ma!

Ahh!!!

Ma! Please don't!

No, Ma! No!

Shut up!

No, Ma, please!

I swear to God, Billie...

If you mess with me,
I'll f*cking k*ll you!

Do you think I
enjoying doing this?

Do you?

[crying]

Because I don't!

I just want you to
stop your lying.

I'm sick and tired of your
f*cking...disobeying me.

I know what
you're doing, Billie.

I wasn't born yesterday,
you know.

You going out and
meeting boys, aren't ya?

No, Ma. I'm not.

Making out, doing drugs...

Having a good time.

No, I'm not doing
any of those things!

But you'd like to,
wouldn't you?!

Well, darl...

So did I when I was your age.

But I didn't get to...

So you won't either.

Billie, come here,
I've made you something to eat.

C'mon, honey.

I didn't go all the way to
the shops and back for nothing.

[chains rattling]

Where do you think you're going?

Can't eat anymore.

Stay with me, honey.

Keep me company?

You know I was about your age
when Patrick gave me this?

We were so in love.

Talked about getting married,

having three children.

That's how many
I told him I wanted.

And he didn't mind.

He wanted three children too.

Three boys.

And look what I got...

A f*cking girl..

A f*cking b*stard girl!

Ma, I've heard all this before.

Wasn't my fault your daddy

was waiting for me,

following me that day.

Wasn't my fault you insisted
on growing inside of me.

And your grandmother...

Know what she did?

She beat me senseless.

You remember that, Ma?!

[eerie voices]

Oh, sh*t!

Ma, what is it?

Ma!

You were so desperate
to be born.

Desperate and determined
to ruin my life!

It's all your fault
I turned out like this.

It's all your fault!

I - I deserve so much better.

You f*cked up my life.

Well and truly f*cked it up!

Shut up, Ma.

I hate you! I hate you!

Shut up!!!

[breathing heavily]

[chains rattling on floor]

Ma?

Ma?

Ma? Ma?!

C'mon, c'mon!

Somebody?

Is anyone there?

Somebody help!

Someone?
Somebody there?

Help me, someone!

Someone!

What's going on?

Are you okay?

You alright?

Come round to the back.

Okay. This way.

Is she breathing?

Yeah.

Is there a key for the chain?

Uh... In a jar.
Up there by the window.

Let's get her in the car.

You can see your mother now.

[ominous, sustained tone plays]

[eerie, faint voice]

Do you want me
to take you home?

No.

[engine starting]

[slow, haunting music plays]

[roar of ocean in distance]

[giggling]

[seagulls squawking]

[eerie voice]

[very dark music tones]

[gasps]

Piss off, b*tch!

Hey...

You know what
I feel like doing?

I just want to take
this car and keep driving.

And go where?

Anywhere. I don't care.

Somewhere far from here.

You should come with me.

What?

You mean...
leave and never come back?

Yeah.

Well, what about my mother?

What about her?

Well, she's pretty sick.
I can't leave her now.

You've got to get
out of that house, Billie.

It's dangerous.

If you don't leave now,

you might not
get another chance.

I'll look after you, Billie.

You know I will.

[ominous, sustained tone]

Okay.

I'll go with you.

I'll go grab my stuff.
I'll come pick you up soon.

You mean, we're leaving tonight?

The sooner the better.

[engine stalls]

[echoing voices]
Got you something...

It's on the table.

Thanks, Ma.

It's beautiful.

Can't say I don't
do nothing for ya.

You stay with me...

You'll always be safe.

[slow, haunting music plays]

[floor creaks]

Ma?

Shut up!

Planning on going somewhere?

No.

Who's the boy?

After everything
I've done for you,

you even try to k*ll me.

It was an accident!

Bullshit!

[glass shatters]

[breathing heavily]

Ma?

Please.

You're not
f*cking going anywhere!

[door creaking]

[echoing voices]
Hello, darling.

Come lie with me.

Do you

Yes, Ma.

You stay with me...

You'll always be safe.

[phone ringing]

[intermittent pounding music]
