快啲啦，女仔，快啲。 BEN：天啊，我而家真係畀佢觸發到。呢間屋好似我細個住嗰間。我阿媽以前個個禮拜都要我做螺絲批測試。咩話？
螺絲批測試。咩話？
螺絲批測試。如果你唔可以將支六吋長嘅螺絲批插入草地，即係你淋水淋得唔夠。咁我哋而家睇緊咩？
一個心理評估。同埋一個靈性評估。睇下可唔可以靠輔導解決。嗨。你哋爸爸媽媽喺屋企嗎？
你哋係為我細佬而嚟嘅？
我哋係。媽，爸！我哋係。媽，爸！嗨。唔該晒你哋肯嚟。嗯，我係 Tom McCrystal。呢位係 Olive。嘿，Olive。 SARAH：唔該晒你哋肯嚟。嗯，我係 Tom McCrystal。呢位係 Olive。嘿，Olive。 SARAH：嗯，請入嚟，唔該。 TOM：使唔使我拎啲嘢飲俾你哋？
水？咖啡？水果零食？
我哋儲備都好充足下。哦。邊種水果零食？
我哋唔使啦，多謝。不過如果可以嘅話，我哋想見吓 Eric。呢邊。
BEN (嘆氣)：好。哦，嗯，咁，有時我哋要喺同一間房度瞓，咁先可以鎖門。明白。係。
Eric？
Eric。 ERIC：做咩？
SARAH：係時候做尋日我同你講過嗰個會面啦。
嗯，我哋會留喺出便。
TOM：佢一見到個BB就會有啲煩躁。
所以你哋係嚟評估我嘅？
嗯，我哋係嚟傾偈嘅。我係 David Acosta。我係 Kristen Bouchard。嗨。嗨，我係 Ben。我冇凳，不過我哋可以坐地下。
Eric，你知唔知你爸爸媽媽點解叫我哋嚟？
知。你同唔同到我哋講發生咗咩事，同你家姐之間？
我咬佢。咬得好大力。佢流好多血。同埋佢喊。 KRISTEN：咁你點解要咬你家姐？
因為我想咬。係咪發生咗啲咩事，令你想咁做？
你可唔可以話俾我哋知？
我哋睇緊《Steven Universe》，佢係咁笑，我想佢收聲。太大聲啦。我叫佢收聲，但佢唔聽。但你整痛人嗰陣，你唔會笑。所以你咬佢嗰時，你知道你整痛緊佢？
咁你對住你家姐做呢樣嘢嗰時，你係咩感覺？
你係咪...鍾意整痛佢？
Eric，望住我。你係咪鍾意整痛佢？
嗯哼。咁整痛佢有咩令你咁鍾意？
我唔知。有啲似睇緊一個我自己作出嚟嘅故事。就好似，喺學校，有個男仔成日都編咗坐我隔籬。因為我姓 McCrystal，佢姓 McCray。所以，我哋上次去中央車站嘅考察活動，我哋玩「大膽定大膽」。我迫佢跳落火車軌，數到42先准上返嚟。 (門打開) 但之後有火車嚟之前，我哋其中一個老師捉走咗佢。你想佢俾火車撞到？
即使咁樣可能會整到佢好傷，甚至殺死佢？
我估係。
你揀漫畫嘅品味幾好。你有冇睇過《赭石7》個系列？
冇。係一個關於一班不死細路喺時間入面玩捉迷藏嘅故事。我好意外你冇睇過喎。喺第四期， Simona 大膽挑戰 Patrick 跳落火車軌，數到42先准上返去。
可能我有睇過，不過唔記得咗啫。 TOM：Eric 以前...好有愛心，好識關心人。佢完全唔同㗎。但之後...佢幾時變㗎？
兩年前。我哋都唔覺意佢變緊。呢度發吓脾氣，嗰度講個小謊話。你係咪做人阿媽㗎？
係。你明㗎，一開始只會覺得係細路仔嘢。之後越積越多，而家要回憶起佢以前係點都好難。咁，嗯，啲碗櫃同雪櫃上面嘅鎖呢？
佢試過落毒害我哋。點解？
佢話佢做緊...點解？
佢話佢做緊個實驗，想睇下我哋要幾耐先發現牛奶入面有液態漂白水。好彩我哋有個保姆攝影機影到佢做過啲咩。你有冇帶過佢去做心理評估？
12次。但心理學家意見唔一致。有冇食過咩藥？
SARAH：嗯，抗抑鬱藥，ADHD藥，
合共23種不同治療方案。 TOM：係，合共23種不同治療方案。 TOM：係，有啲曾經一段時間有效，但之後佢就對啲藥冇反應。佢入過兩次精神病院。啲警察去過佢學校三次。呢啲係啲警察報告。我唔想提議呢樣，但係有聯邦計劃。係，佢哋捉咗 Eric 去一個禮拜，之後就叫我哋去接返佢走。佢哋應該乜人都收，但佢哋唔肯收 Eric。我意思係，我哋搞咗兩年啦。而我哋只係...
天啊，我唔想咁做。我哋只係需要有人幫吓我哋。我哋唔係好虔誠嘅天主教徒。但 Eric 身體入面有啲嘢。一隻惡魔。我從來冇諗過我會講呢樣嘢。但我而家信啦。兩年前有啲嘢改變咗 Eric，呢樣嘢想殺咗我哋。就係因為咁，我哋需要你哋嘅幫忙。
(嘆氣) 呢個係噩夢。我哋要自己做完心理評估，先可以向教會要求任何行動。係，我會跟進。各位，呢個情況有可能係環境造成嘅。明唔明？大嗰個女，佢頭髮有啲帶綠色。係酸性造成嘅。水入面有氧化金屬粒子。就好似銅管咁。明唔明？而佢哋係兩年前搬嚟呢度嘅。就係個細路開始行為異常嘅時候。
有可能。過度接觸銅會引起精神症狀。你去查吓呢樣，我哋會同 Eric 做我哋自己嘅心理評估。好。 Ben。好。 Ben。你可唔可以去我屋企檢查吓有冇金屬腐蝕？
好，啲細路有無精神問題？
媽，我哋返嚟啦。媽，我好肚餓。媽！我個肚就快餓死我。媽，我哋返咗嚟啦！媽，你喺邊呀？！阿媽喺邊？
嘿，靜啲。唔好，唔好，唔好。阿媽喺邊？
嘿，靜啲。唔好，唔好，唔好。嘿，嘿，嘿。靜啲，靜啲。呢個係咩嚟？
好，我吸引到你哋注意啦。
好啦，而家留心聽清楚。你哋阿媽仲喺公司返緊工，而我揸住對八。睇到未？
嗯哼。廚房有果醬餡餅。而既然我唔記得你哋邊個幾時生日，呢啲嘢俾你哋。 (倒抽氣) 嘩，天啊！唔好，放開！我生日最近！好，好-- 唔好，唔好，唔好。唔好-唔好多謝我。多謝晒，嫲嫲。開咗佢。而家，聽住，如果你哋唔可以保持安靜，我就收返走晒佢哋。我想拎住佢。 (倒抽氣) LEXIS：嘩，天啊，我知呢啲係咩嚟。擴增實境眼鏡。學校有個女仔有呢副。 LYNN：嫲嫲，呢啲好正呀。 SHERYL：我知。而家，所有人，錫我一啖然後去玩。好唔好？但千祈唔好殺人。唔准殺人。錫！
LYNN：好啦，我哋可以試下《環遊世界》、《擋磚塊》、《跳跳兔》...
LILA：《鬼屋少女》。
一齊：《鬼屋少女》！《鬼屋少女》！
LAURA：俾我哋睇。我哋想睇。我哋啱啱先戴上，我哋一齊分享緊。停手呀！點解分享就等於你哋可以用先？
因為我哋最大嗰個。嘩，我哋而家要做咩？
LYNN：嫲嫲話可以用，所以我諗應該得嘅。
LEXIS：點解，佢寫咗咩？
冇咩，只係問我哋夠唔夠年齡。 LAURA：而家佢寫咩？
LYNN：佢問緊我哋係咪有咗。咩話？
LILA：嗯，我哋冇，所以...咩話？
LILA：嗯，我哋冇，所以...
LYNN：嘩。 (笑)：天啊。
LAURA：咩呀，係咩嚟㗎？
LEXIS：俾我用啦。
LYNN：好古怪。只係我哋間房，但係有蜘蛛網同埋...仲有蜘蛛！有蜘蛛呀。
LAURA：咩話？喺邊度？
我哋想睇。唔好，等陣先，等陣先，等吓。天啊。 LAURA：輪到我哋啦，過咗五分鐘啦！快啲啦！俾我哋試吓。等陣等陣等陣等陣等陣等陣，唔好，唔好，唔好，唔好。俾我哋試吓。等陣等陣等陣等陣等陣等陣，唔好，唔好，唔好，唔好。 LILA：等等，我哋要唔要試？
要。咩話？
佢想我哋熄燈。咩話？
佢想我哋熄燈。
天啊！ LAURA：係咩嚟㗎？
LYNN：蜘蛛呀，喺走廊。
LILA：巨型。
LYNN：超巨型。
LEXIS：我諗輪到我啦。
LYNN：超巨型。
LEXIS：我諗輪到我啦。輪到我哋啦！等等，等等。停手呀，停手，Laura。可唔可以俾我用呀？
即刻停手呀。停，停，停，停，停，停，停，停，停，停，停。 LYNN：呢個癲㗎。好真實，好真實。好真實。
LILA：我哋應唔應該？
只係我哋自己個廁所啫。
LILA (尖叫)：熄咗佢呀！嘩，天啊！嘩，咦！佢嚟緊，佢嚟緊...嘩，天啊！嘩，咦！佢嚟緊，佢嚟緊... LILA：快啲熄咗佢！佢嚟緊，佢嚟緊...
熄咗佢，熄咗佢！熄咗佢！佢嚟緊，佢嚟緊，佢嚟緊。熄咗佢！佢嚟緊。熄咗佢！ (喘氣) 咩？
而家輪到我哋啦。拎住呢個。我幫你。好。只要知道呢啲全部都唔係真嘅就得啦。我幫你。好。只要知道呢啲全部都唔係真嘅就得啦。咁呢個係遊戲，定係咩？我要做啲咩？
我唔知。我哋未去到咁遠。只要唔好驚就得。 LAURA：呢個根本唔恐怖。我乜都睇唔到。 LEXIS：打開廁所門。只要知道嗰啲唔係真就得。唔好驚。繼續啦。冇事㗎，Laura，你得嘅。 (倒抽氣) 快啲啦。
咩？只係我哋個廁所啫。你睇唔到咩？嗰個揸住屠刀嘅男人？
LYNN：佢啱啱仲喺度。
LILA：係。冇喎。佢一秒鐘前明明喺度。冇喎。呢度咩都冇。講真？
冇喎。呢度咩都冇。講真？
你哋頭先全部扮出嚟嘅！唔係，我哋冇。佢明明喺度㗎！有，你哋有！ (重疊爭論緊) 你覺得我哋會呢啲嘢講大話？
睇下！呢度咩都冇！係囉。我諗呢副眼鏡壞咗。唔work㗎。眼鏡冇壞，等多一秒。四圍望下...我哋應該睇到啲咩？
一啲恐怖嘅嘢。 (低吼聲) 一啲恐怖嘅嘢。 (低吼聲) (倒抽氣) LILA：咩話？你係咪聽到啲咩？
LEXIS：係咩嚟㗎？
(低吼聲) LAURA：嗯哼。 (低吼聲) 你係咪見到啲嘢？
LYNN：係咩嚟㗎？
係咩嚟㗎？你睇到咩？
LILA：你睇到咩？係咩嚟㗎？
Lexis，你冇事！ Lexis，你冇事！ (重疊嘅說話聲) (咆哮) LILA：係咩嚟㗎？
LILA：係咩嚟㗎？
Lexis，Lexis，Lexis，Lexis，你冇事。你睇到咩？
(重疊嘅說話聲) Laura，呢度咩都冇，好唔好？咩都冇。全部係假㗎，好唔好？呢度咩都冇。 Laura，呢度咩都冇。 Laura，你去邊？
Laura，你去邊？
Laura，你去邊？ Laura！
KRISTEN：發生緊咩事？
呢啲係咩嚟？你哋喺邊度攞㗎？
甜心，你冇事嘛？
我-我買呢啲返嚟做共同禮物。我諗住佢哋會鍾意。轉《跳跳兔》啦。佢哋-佢哋好正㗎
LYNN: See, it's-it's like Pokémon Go. You just hunt bunnies.
LILA: Yeah, they're fun. You just hunt bunnies. LILA: Yeah, they're fun.
LYNN: See?
Then, why was your sister screaming?
She's a little baby. Shut up! She's a little baby. Shut up! Because she doesn't like whacking bunnies on the head. Okay, here's the deal. on the head. Okay, here's the deal. You can play with these, but not on the stairs and only after you do your homework, okay? Okay, we'll start our homework right now. Come on, guys. I'm not scared anymore. Good. Good, honey. I'm not scared anymore. Good. Good, honey. All right, dinner. Let's go. Let's go. Dinner. LILA: Mom, what's for dinner?
KRISTEN: Um, we are going to have...
SHERYL: It's Grandma's special. (growling)
ERIC: Tired. Good.
Surprised. Good. Do I have to do these anymore?
Yes, you do. They're stupid.
Eric, please sit down. What other graphic novels do you like?
DAVID: We can discuss every graphic novel that's ever been written as soon as you're finished with Kristen.
Hey, welcome back.
I don't know. Really?
You want to take another look?
So you don't feel any change at all?
Something in you? Something influencing you?
No.
Recognize this?
What is it?
Blessed rosary.
Why don't you take it?
No. That's okay if you don't want to. I can understand you being scared.
I'm not scared.
Why don't you pick it up?
"I like to be where exciting things happen."
"I do not care if I get into trouble at school."
DAVID: Thy Kingdom come... Thy will be done, on Earth as it is in Heaven. Why are we at church?
This is where I work. I don't like it here. Why?
It's dark. Too bad. Repeat the words. Do you like me?
I don't think I've decided. Do you think I have a demon in me?
I don't think I've decided. If I do have a demon in me, is there anything you can do?
I can try. Do you want that?
I don't know.
KRISTEN: He scored high on the callous-unemotional factor: 53 out of 80. The grandiose-manipulative factor: 41 out of 60. Any treatment possibilities?
Well, it's hard, but you try to teach the child what they lack: remorse and empathy. How do you do that?
remorse and empathy. How do you do that?
You show them what remorse looks like in others and explain that there's a greater advantage if they imitate it. So, in the end they're really not remorseful, they're just faking it?
Yes, but hopefully what starts as imitation becomes learned behavior. "Fake it until you make it"?
Sure. What about you?
Any hope from your end?
There might be some demonic oppression. Can't be sure. It's hard to tell with a nine-year-old. This family doesn't want to hear about more therapy. They want to hear it's supernatural. I know.
Do you think God could ever create a nine-year-old psychopath?
No. So there should always be hope?
Yes, in redemption. And how do you teach a child to want redemption?
"Fake it until you make it."
(clears throat) I got a question for you. I have a question for you. Go ahead. Why are you her friend?
Kristen?
I don't trust her. I think you'd trust her if you got to know her.
What do you think you want to be when you get older?
When you're an adult. Comic book artist. Yeah?
Comic book artist. Yeah?
(chuckles) I did as a kid, too. Really?
Yeah. Really?
Yeah. Well, if that's what you want, you know you got to play by the rules. That's what I did. And I know you don't feel the way other people want you to feel. I understand, but that's why you got to pretend, at least some of the times. What do you mean, pretend?
When you see someone crying, cry with them. When you see someone laugh, laugh with them. Watch what other people do, watch what they expect, and then do that. Because you got to work with other people to draw comics, but they won't want to work with you unless you follow the rules. And maybe you'll end up like me, not minding the rules. They won't seem like so much work anymore because you'll be on the inside of 'em, not the outside. And I know this all seems like it's pretty hard, but you know what helps me follow the rules?
Even on days when I don't want to?
Yeah. I know, but it works. Praying?
Don't call it prayer. Just tell God what you want. And he'll give it to me?
He'll give it to you if you have faith and act upon it.
Hey, don't freak out when you see a strange man in your bathroom. Your, uh, mom asked me to come look at the pipes and your grandma let me in. Hey. So, is the shower broken?
Hey. So, is the shower broken?
No, no, it's, uh, your mother's just worried that you're gonna turn into psychopaths. (girls talking at once)
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, stop. Time out, time out. Have you guys ever noticed that when you all talk at the same time, no one can understand you?
What's your name?
Ben the Magnificent. What's yours?
Laura. Lynn. Lexis. Lila. Okay, well, that cleared things up. Is that really your name?
Yeah.
You know, I, uh, I like those stars. Yeah. Who did those?
I did. No, you didn't. You just hung them. I cut them out. Well, I cut them up. No, you...
All right, okay. Okay! All right, stop, stop, stop. All right, that's enough. I-I-I really have to do this, and you guys probably have... Yeah, we've all got homework. ...to do things. Yeah. Just... homework. LAURA: Let me try again. LYNN: Laura, it terrified you the last time. No, now I know how to use 'em. Well, first we're going to see if there's anything scary. Is there anything scary?
You didn't let me put it on. Now is there anything?
One second.
(chitters, roars) I'll get it with the fireball. LEXIS: What fireball?
I looked online how to play. LILA: Awesome. This is so cool. (laughs): This is so cool.
Wait, look.
LYNN: Who's Rose390?
I don't know. Maybe she knows more. Wait, maybe we shouldn't. Shouldn't what? Is there someone else on it?
Who is it?
Shouldn't what? Is there someone else on it?
Who is it?
What is it?
We can always turn it off.
LITTLE GIRL: Hello.
Hi?
I'm Lila. I'm Rose. Do you want to play?
W-We just started. We don't know how. Have you seen the board?
LILA: What board?
It's probably in there. Go ahead and open it. I can't touch anything in your house. I can only see.
LITTLE GIRL: There it is. In the corner.
LILA: Wh-What do you do to it?
Open it like you're opening a book. And what will it do?
LILA: Whoa. See?
That's how you get to the next level. What's the next level?
Everything. It's so fun. Put your hands on the pointer, like this. I'll put my hands on this side. LEXIS: I don't think they should do this. Me, too. Slide it around so it lands on "hello."
Okay, now what?
We say "Hail, hail, hail" three times, but we have to say it together. Okay?
Who are you?
Okay?
Who are you?
Just a normal girl playing like you.
And what does it do?
Look, I'll start. Hail, hail... BOTH: Hail, hail, hail. Good, here he comes.
Here he comes. Here he comes. (demonic voice): Now we can really play.
LYNN AND LILA: Hail, hail, hail, here he comes. Hail, hail, hail, here he comes. Hail, hail, hail, here he comes. Hail, hail, hail, here he comes. Hail, hail, hail, here he comes. Hail, hail, hail, here he comes. Hey. Hail, hail, hail, here he comes. Hey. Hail, hail, hail, here he comes. Hey. Hail, hail, hail, here he comes. Hail, hail, hail, here he... Hey. What are you guys doing?
Nothing. We were just playing. Nothing. We were just playing. Yeah? What are you playing?
Just a game.
Can I see?
Oh, okay. Uh, I-I'm not your mom, but this is not an appropriate game for kids.
This is, uh, an M.A. game. We were done playing anyway. an M.A. game. We were done playing anyway. Really?
Yeah. KRISTEN: Daughters! Okay, well, I think... GIRLS: Mom!
(overlapping chatter) I didn't expect you to be home so early. This is so unusual... I didn't expect you to be home so early. This is so unusual... Why are you home so early?
Your friend's upstairs. Oh, good, Ben's here. LILA: Ben the Magnificent. Oh, good, Ben's here. LILA: Ben the Magnificent. He's fixing the shower. Ben the Magnificent, huh? Have you been nice to him?
Yes. Mm-hmm. We were playing a game we shouldn't have. An adult game. LILA: Lynn... LAURA: I didn't get to. I-I didn't get to play. Yes, you did. No... Look, you're holding the controllers. That's proof. Just because I'm holding it That's proof. Just because I'm holding it doesn't mean... I didn't get to play.
(ghostly groaning) It's called The Haunted Girl. KRISTEN: So it's an adult game?
Well, it's an M.A. game. It's really not that scary. Yes, but they lied to me. No, she just told the truth, and that wasn't the easiest thing for her to do. She only told the truth because she was afraid you were gonna tell me. Well... It's like with Eric's mother. Well... It's like with Eric's mother. It starts with a small fib. Look, if you want me to make these things child-protected, I can. And then all they can do is play the bunny game. Or I just throw 'em out. Yeah. I mean, my parents threw out my video games and I went to my friend's house.
Okay, well, if you don't mind, please, child-protect 'em. Okay. Any word on our pipes?
Uh, you are okay. No copper. Really?
No toxicity?
No. Your children are happy and healthy, and you're a good mother. Well, I'm not so sure about that. I mean, they just lied to me. And what about the pipes in Eric's house?
Uh, I don't know yet. I'm still looking. Okay. Thanks, Ben the Magnificent. (door opens) (door closes)
What are you doing?
Who are you?
None of your business. What are you doing?
I'm getting rid of you, Rose390. (demonic voice): It won't work. Yes, it will. You are a pedophile with a voice modifier. And if you ever try to get in here again, I am gonna dox you into the next century.
Did you ask him?
No. SARAH: What's going on?
Last night I saw him praying. What? Why?
I don't know.
ERIC: Will you check my work, Mom?
You've been good, Eric. I like David. The man who was here?
Yes. He said if I wanted something, I-I should talk to God. And what do you want? A tutor who will show me how to draw comics.
I'll see what I can do.
(chuckles) That's great news. Um, I-I can help if you want. I-I know some of the basics, and I know some comic book artists. (laughs): That's so good to hear. He likes you, David. And I feel like he's taken to something you said. Um, what is that?
Uh, asking God for something he wants. Okay. I'll come on over with my drawings, and I'll start him off on the basics. Thank you so much. I'll see you soon.
David. Don't let me interrupt. No, I'm finished. I'm glad you came. I thought we could do a little tutorial. Want to go inside?
No. Out here is good.
It's a little bright. (chuckles)
What's going on, Eric?
Nothing.
What were you praying for?
You said it wasn't praying. It was just asking God for something.
What were you asking...?
No, no, no, no, no, no. Oh, my God, no. No, no, no, no, no. No, oh, God... Come here, come here, baby... Hi, hi, hi. There's been a drowning at 9023 Broxton. We need paramedics immediately!
What were you doing?! You told me if I had faith and acted upon it, God would hear me. Hear you for what?
I was asking to take her away.
You're seeking an emergency exorcism? The child tried to kill his little sister by drowning her.
Under compulsion? I-I don't think he was doing it through his own free will. And what do you think, Ms. Bouchard?
I think he shows psychopathic behaviors, but ultimately I don't think I can ever really explain why he's driven to kill. Well, I'm only allowed to move forward if this is a spiritual disturbance and not a psychological one. The parents want an exorcism. They have tried everything. They think there is a demon inside him. And you think psychology has nothing more to offer him?
Look, if I were honest with you, Father... AMARA: Please. Psychology always thinks there's more to do, but this family will be murdered before we find results. AMARA: All right, then, tell them to be prepared for tomorrow. I'll be there.
Thank you.
Well, there's nothing I said I don't believe.
I think we should get a drink sometime.
I'd like that.
LITTLE GIRL: What are you doing?
LYNN: I'm sleeping. Don't you want to finish the game?
What game?
Who are you talking to?
No one. Just go back to sleep. Why do you have those back on?
Don't. I-It's nothing. Why do you have those back on?
Don't. I-It's nothing.
LILA: Hey, it's her. It's me. LILA: Hey, it's her. It's me. The game's not done yet. Come on back. We can't. We can only play rabbits. I'll show you how to take off the child lock. We're not supposed to. I have some bad news. LILA: What?
I have some bad news. LILA: What?
It's about your dad. What about him?
Don't you want to know where he is?
He's on Everest, climbing. Are you sure?
I think we should take these off. LITTLE GIRL: First, you should check the board. LILA: What board?
you should check the board. LILA: What board?
Come on, don't you want to ask it what happened to your dad?
Go ahead. (voice distorts): Ask it where your dad is.
Where's my dad?
"Heaven"?
You'll like being an orphan.
Dad's fine. How do you know?
Well, because he texts me every day. How do you know it's him? Maybe it's somebody else in the group writing for him. Or maybe it was done earlier. Okay, where is this coming from?
The girl in the game. The haunted game? I thought I said you couldn't play?
We didn't. The girl came into Bunny Hopp. She found us. Okay, Lila, I want you to get those goggles right now. But... No, now, please.
You know you don't get to play with them anymore, right?
I know. Okay, I've got an idea. Why don't we text Dad, let him know we're thinking about him, okay?
Can we send him a video message?
That's even better. Let's do that. Let's all squish. And... we're on. Hey, Dad, we're whispering 'cause we don't want to wake up Lexis and Laura. We love you and we're worried about you. Don't fall off a mountain. Okay, Mom wants to say something. Please call us when you can. We all love you.
Do you love Dad?
(chuckles) Of course I do. Do you think he loves you?
Yes. Then why isn't he home? Well, he's making money for us. He's guiding people on Everest. Can't you make the money?
Yes, but it's what Dad does. I do things here, and he does things there. When's he coming home?
In a few weeks. Now, why don't you just go to sleep?
Dad's fine. He loves you, and he's fine.
So, you ever been to an exorcism before?
Never. Well, it's not what you'd expect. Long stretches of tedium interrupted by seconds of sheer terror.
How's she doing?
SARAH: Good. She's a trooper. Hopefully she won't remember what happened. Are the cops here about yesterday?
No, no, we had an incident. Uh, this is Father Amara. He's here for the rite, the exorcism. Good afternoon. I-I thought you were talking something in the pipes. Uh, there was some corrosion but not enough for concern. So the Church has agreed to your request for an exorcism. Uh, the police are here because Eric is missing. He ran away. COP: If this isn't his blood, whose is it?
We had nothing to do with that. That is not his blood. SARAH: We need to deal with this right now, so, um, th-thank you for your help. Oh, we-we might need you to tell the police that Eric tried to drown Olive.
Okay.
(crying) I love all my children equally, but when one of them is in danger, I have to act.
Oh. Um, Eric said to give you this. Pray for Eric.
Pray for us.
They killed him.
(quietly): Pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
Please forgive them.
Please forgive Eric.
(thunder rumbling) (indistinct chatter on TV)
