[RUNNING FOOTSTEPS]

- BOY: Come on. Pass, pass. I'm open.

- BOY #3: I'll get that, milady.

[PIANO MUSIC PLAYING]

[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]

GIRL: You didn't tell me
you played piano.

MAREN: Hey.

You are here.
Where have you been?

You weren't in Home Ec.
all week.

I got to slip to work
on the yearbook.

We missed our deadline with Jostens.

Oh. How's it look?

You're not gonna be in it,
by the way.

Mr. Esser said
he reminded you three times

- to get your picture taken.
- [PLAYS PIANO]

Hey, so my dad's doing
inventory all night,

and Kim and Jackie are sleeping over.

Come too.

[CONTINUES PLAYING PIANO]

No, my dad won't let me.

So sneak out.
After he goes to bed.

How would I get there?

You're down in Southwind, right?

You know the power lines
that go up the hill?

That's Chesapeake Road at the top.
I'm right there.

You said you wanna make
more friends here.

[STUDENTS CHATTERING]

Hey. Come on, you drive.

- BOY: Okay.
- GIRL: Take care. Bye.

[MEN LAUGHING AND CHATTERING]

Hey. That was good on the road.

Gotta work on that parking some more...

but good.

You think it's gonna rain tonight?

Don't think it's supposed to.

[CAN POPS OPEN]

[GRUNTS]
Got homework?

Just reading, Dad.

The man has attempted suicide.

I think he realized

that this scheme that
he had been involved in,

about which he had
always been extremely guilty.

I mean, he's... he's,
I think, the only person

in this entire scheme to have
voluntarily walked out on it.

Some people were annoyed
with it, upset with it,

and... but went along with it.
Others enjoyed it

because they were making
a lot of money out of it.

Dowd was the only person
who had the character...

'Night, Dad.

[ON TV]
MAN: ...and the moral fiber...

Yeah. Sleep good.

[ON TV]
MAN: ...to walk out on this scheme

long before anybody knew about it,

because it disgusted him.

I mean, the prospect of actually

walking into Donald Manes' office

and paying him cash...

[WIND BLOWING]

- [MUFFLED MUSIC PLAYING]
- [MUFFLED CHATTER]

[PANTING]

Hang on.
Okay.

- Hey.
- Hey.

You got prickers all over you.
Come in.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

KIM: So you can't spend the night?

MAREN: Not all night.

I should be back by 6:00 to be safe.

Jesus.

I'll just head out
when you guys wanna sleep.

So where'd you move here from anyway?

Eastern shore.

Is your mom in the picture?

Sherry says you only have a dad.

[KNOCK ON TABLE]

"Cinnamon Glaze."

We're trying to talk.

SHERRY: Kim, give me your hand.

KIM: Never mind about your mom.

It's none of my business, anyway.

[INHALES DEEPLY]

I don't have any memories of her.

Or photos even.

My dad wouldn't tell me anything.

Try that.
It's called "Copper Fever."

It's too orange.

- [BONES CRUNCHING]
- [SCREAMING]

Oh, my God!

Maren, stop it!

Stop! Stop it!

Maren, stop!
Maren, no!

- Jackie!
- [CONTINUES SCREAMING]

Maren, stop!

Jackie!
Jackie, help!

Jackie, help!

[PANTING]

[BANGING ON DOOR]

You didn't.

In the car in three minutes.

Whatever you can take in three minutes.

Go!

Shit.

Move, Maren!

When the cops get here,
we have to be good and gone.

Dad?

[SIGHS]

[YAWNING]

Dad?

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

[BUTTON CLICKS]

[ON TAPE]
MAREN'S FATHER: I've got some things to say.

And then...

I want you to make sure this, uh...

this tape is good and destroyed.
Don't keep it.

This has got my voice on it.

You're not going to see me again, Maren.

I can't...

help you anymore.

[MAREN CRYING]

I can't do anything else, either.

Call the cops or whatever
somebody might do in my place.

So I gotta leave you
to figure it out for yourself.

Like your mother did.

I'm sorry.
You know what I mean now.

I don't know how much...

how much of what I'm gonna say
you'll remember.

[SIGHS] Yeah.
Never was sure.

But just in case,

I'll tell you everything I know.

First time was when you were three.

[INDISTINCT TALKING ON TV]

NEWSCASTER: Downey has the crowd screaming

at Towson State University.

The topic was
the most controversial issue

on this year's Maryland ballot,

the gun ban referendum.

The majority of those in the audience

seem to be against the ban,

but we found those
on both sides of the issue.

WOMAN: I think it's a good law,

if she gets guns off the streets,

and that's what we need most.

MAN: I just don't think it's fair

for all the innocent people
that wanna get a gun

to protect themselves.

Just making it easier for criminals
to have them than honest people.

MAN #2: I don't want them comin' in my living
room and tell me what I can and can't buy.

Y'all think if you take
the guns away from everybody,

you have less shooting
with the whole nine-yards,

the criminals and the innocent people.

Hi.

Uh...

I need to get here.

What's the closest I can get by bus?

Well, looks like Detroit Lakes.

Three transfers.

Frederick, Maryland,
Columbus and Minneapolis.

One way? 83.

How much to Columbus?

Shouldn't you be in school?

You'd think.

I don't know what that means.

Means I'm 18,
in the state of Maryland,

and I can decide for myself
where I should be.

I'm gonna need to see a driver's
license or a learner's permit.

You can see a birth certificate.

Come on.

Just to Columbus?

It's 49.

50.

[PASSENGERS CHATTERING]

MAREN'S FATHER: I had a sitter for you then.

[CHUCKLES]
Her name was Penny.

When I came in,
she was on the bathroom floor.

There was... so much blood.

Her face was chewed up bad,

but the worst of it was her neck.

She must've been holding you
when you started in on her.

Her hands, all chewed up. I...

I thought you were dead too.

That somebody had done you both,

but you were sleepin'.

When I turned you over,
I saw the blood on your mouth.

You had something in your cheek.

I fished it out.
It was soft, like a wad of gum.

It had a little hole in it.

Where an earring would go.

I remember thanking God
she hadn't been wearing any,

you could've choked.

I got the body out,

I bleached the place three times,

and then packed us up and left.

They never found where I put her.

That was the last time
I used our real last name.

Now you know why.

Nothin' happened for a few years.
I relaxed.

You had to start school and I thought...

I thought you wouldn't do it in public,

and you didn't.

But you got clever.

So fucking clever.

[SIGHS]

[THUNDER RUMBLING]

[RAIN PATTERING]

[THUNDER CONTINUES RUMBLING]

I didn't mean to scare you.

[BREATHING SHAKILY]

You waiting for the bus?

Well, no, missy. I...

I came lookin' for you.

Do I know you?

I guess not in the way you mean.

I smelled you.

You probably smell me now.

When was the last time you fed?

[THUNDER RUMBLING]

[SNIFFS]

MAREN: Stop, stop, stop there. Stop.

You haven't in a long time.
[SNIFFS]

I'll say...

many months.

At least.

You can smell that?

[CHUCKLES]
Oh, sure.

You can...

You can smell lots of things
if you know how.

[SNIFFS]

And we just smell anyway.
[LAUGHS]

Whether we ate or not.

Hmm.

Come on, missy.

Come on.

Come on.

MAREN: Where are we goin'?

Just here,
someplace dry and safe.

I'm Sullivan.

Friends call me Sully.

Maren.

Is this your house?

Listen, Maren,

don't worry.
I'm okay.

I got rules.

One, number one

is never, never, ever eat an Eater.

Think you can follow that too?

All right.

I'll fix some dinner for us.

I smelled you from the yard,
little missy. Come on.

This far?

SULLY: Round the back.
We'll talk inside.

The Sully, he found
these little Cornish hens

in the freezer.

These hens,

they look like they had a good life.

Thought I was the only one.

Are there lots of us?

Not lots.

But more...

more than you'd think.

You've met a few, sure,
that you know of.

[BONES SNAPPING]

You never had anyone
take a interest in you?

[STUTTERS]
A double take?

[CHUCKLES]

Just always thought--

You just thought some people are creepy.

It's better if we all
steer clear of one another.

We're dangerous to non-Eaters,

but we can hurt one another just as bad.

I hope you're hearing me on this.

[THUNDER RUMBLING]

You sound like my dad.

Your daddy find out about you?

What about you?

You basically just said
steer clear of people like us.

But you came looking for me.

[CHUCKLING]

Smart.

When I saw you're just
a girl on your own,

I thought...

you might be hungry.

For hens?

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

No.

Who lives here?

Well, go and look.

[MAREN SNIFFING]

Use your nose.

What do you smell?

Is there someone dead up there?

What do you smell?

Describe it.

Metallic.

Like blood?

No, like mud.

Something tangy.

But not like rotten.

No.

But close.

More like vinegar.

Like vinegar in the soup.

Yeah.
Yeah.

[MAREN SNIFFING]

[BREATHING LABORIOUSLY]

- She's alive.
- SULLY: Missy.

- We'll get help.
- Missy.

What did you do to her?

I found her like that this mornin'.

You're lying.
Let me by.

Listen.
Let me bone down on this.

Whatever you and I got,

it's gotta be fed.

[BREATHING SHAKILY]

No. Uh...

No, 'cause it was...

It was years before my last time.

[SIGHS]
That's because you're young.

You're gonna need it more and more,

- and more and more.
- [WHIMPERING]

And you won't always be able
to hold yourself back.

But if the circumstances is...

is safe and good,

then eat.

It'll last a while,

maybe it'll keep you from,

you know,
doing something you'll regret.

[MAREN CONTINUES WHIMPERING]

Even more.

Even more, missy.

Yes, Sully found her that way.

I followed my nose.

I don't...
I don't kill people.

At least I try not to.

That leaves this.

- And things like it.
- [SNIFFLES]

[SNIFFLES]

Can I have a few minutes, please?

Sure, you can.

I don't think it'll be a long time now.

When the time comes,
you'll smell it.

This is how I do it.

It helps me to remember each one.

When I began this,
I was about your age.

Pull it.

You won't break it.

[CHUCKLES]

It's strong.
[LAUGHS]

MAREN: Who was your first?
You remember?

I ate my own granddad

while they were waiting
on the undertaker.

Did anyone find you
while you were doing it?

My mama.

My mama found me afterwards.

Cleaned me up.

She told everyone
animals got in and did it.

But when I finally ran off,

no one came looking for me.

MAREN: And you've been
on your own since then?

It's not hard...

once someone teaches you.

[SNIFFS]

But you don't...
you don't, uh...

you don't need to be alone.

You can bond with me as long as you like.

I'm looking for someone.

Your mama.

You mentioned your daddy last night,

so I knew he was in the picture.

You must be runnin' from him

or he left you or somethin'.

[FLIES BUZZING]

But you didn't say nothin'
about your mama, though.

I never met her.

All I have is the name of
the town she was born in.

It's on my birth certificate.

Mm-hmm.

We better clean up

before we dry stuck to these chairs.

MAREN'S FATHER: The next few, I didn't see.

A boy went missin' at a camp you went to.

I shouldn't have let you go.

But you wanted to.

It was just a week.
You were eight.

When that boy went missin', I knew

this is who you are.

I never thought "what" you are.

I don't know if I loved you
the way a father should,

but I... I didn't hate you.

You...

You ate them.
I believed you had to.

I don't know why.

They found his pup tent
pitched in the heavy woods,

all bloody inside.

Luke somethin' Vanderbilt.

[ON PA]
DRIVER: Good evening, everyone.

MAREN'S FATHER: They ruled it a homicide,

I... I never heard.

DRIVER: This is the end of the line.

MAREN'S FATHER: Vanderwall or somethin' like that.

DRIVER: Take all your belongings with you.

MAREN'S FATHER: I watched after to see

if you looked sad,
and you didn't.

That was the beginnin'
of sayin' no to things.

Now you know why for that, too.

[MUSIC PLAYING ON SPEAKERS]

MAN: So I was thinking...

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

WOMAN: No. It's not there.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

You don't have Lunchables?

What kind of goddamned grocery store

runs out of Lunchables?

WOMAN #2: Excuse me.

Whoa, you trying to run me down?

I asked a question.

Hear this, you dumb ho.

Hey, don't talk to her like that!

Hey!

You're out of control, buddy.

You with the store or somethin'?

No, I'm not with the store,

but I'm gonna escort you out of it.

[CHUCKLES]
Fucking see what happens.

- See what happens?
- Yeah.

What's gonna happen?
Something bad's gonna happen?

Yeah.

[LAUGHS] Outside.
We're going outside.

BOY: You enjoy hassling people, man?

Is that what you do on Saturdays

when you're done jerking off?

MAN #2: Hey, gimme my hat,
you little jackass.

- [BREATHING HEAVILY]
- [PENSIVE MUSIC PLAYING]

[SNIFFLING]

[SQUELCHING]

He's over in there, like,
400 yards if you wanna...

MAREN: You could tell, in the store?

I smelled you too.
I didn't know I could do that.

I'm, uh, going to Minnesota.

I got dumped here by a ride.
I just stole dinner.

It was all I could think to do.

You're not local either, I guess.

Why does that matter?

That was nice what you did
for that mom in there.

I'm 18, if you're wondering.

I was gonna guess younger.

Thanks.

I don't usually talk to anyone after.

I don't actually meet many others.

Sort of glad not to.

MAREN: Yeah, I get it.

BOY: I'm just saying I'm not an asshole.

You should probably go anyway.
Up close, you can see blood.

We're fine.

No.

I really don't think I am.

You wanna get in for a minute?

This truck's his.
You can't just take it.

Everyone's got their rules.

That's not one of my rules.

"Barry Cook.

"5278 Route 13.
Centerville, Indiana."

You're going to his house?

Yeah, he didn't have any pictures
in his wallet. I think it'll be all right.

- Took his wallet, too?
- I didn't take his wallet,

I took the money
out of the wallet. Eight bucks.

I chucked the wallet in a creek back there.

I'm Maren.

I'm Lee.

I don't know whether to cry,
or scream, or laugh, or what.

Don't scream.

I thought I was the only one.

Now I meet two others in a week.

Hey, do you think you could help me?

- [SIGHS]
- I'm new at this.

No one our age is new at this.

Well, I'm new at remembering it.

At all.

Look, I won't try to mess with you.
I promise.

I don't wanna hurt anybody.

That's the one where they stop

[INDISTINCT TV CHATTER]

You seemed like such a hardcase yesterday.

When you weigh 140 pounds wet,

you gotta have a big attitude instead.

I've got that for you.

- And the pancakes.
- Thanks.

- And your bacon.
- Thank you.

Sully.

That's his name.
The other guy I met.

He showed up at a bus station

saying he could smell me
half a mile away.

- Can you do that?
- Not that far.

Said he could also smell

when people are about to die too.

Actually, I think I might have
heard of this guy.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Keeps this braid woven with the hair.

People that he eats.

- Christ.
- It's like eight feet long.

LEE: That's a choice.

We don't have to be like that.

Why didn't you tag along with him?

MAREN: Mm...

Something about him.
I don't know.

I think he was tryin' to help.

I profoundly doubt that.

He was creepy, I guess.

Did that dawn on you before or after

[SOFTLY]
you ate Mrs. Herman together?

WAITRESS: More coffee?

- [CLEARS THROAT] Yes, please.
- Okay.

Can I get anything else for you guys?

That's all right.
That's good, thanks.

You're welcome.

- Harmon. Mrs. Harmon.
- Mrs... Mrs. Harmon.

WAITRESS: Okay.
You're welcome.

Does that help?

Memorizing their names?

[SIGHS]

Why'd you offer to bring me along?

You seem nice.

- I am nice.
- Mm.

Do I seem nice?

I'm going to the bathroom.

How do you feel
about sleeping outside?

Okay.

[GROWLS PLAYFULLY]

LEE: It'll be cold tonight,
but if we keep this truck,

we'll get a sheet of plywood
for back here.

MAREN: What's in Kentucky anyway?

LEE: It's my little sister.

I promised to give her driving lessons

before she has to take her test.

- MAREN: Mm.
- LEE: She's a good kid.

MAREN: Do you get home often?

LEE: A little bit.
I left when I was 17.

- [THUNDER CRACKING]

LEE: I didn't finish school, which sucks.

I'm guessing you didn't, either.

Other ways to learn, I guess.

PREACHER: Maybe what other peoples'

weaknesses may be.

That Satan knows
where your weakness is.

I said He knows
where your weakness is.

He knows how to stir you up.

I said He knows how to stir you up.

And He knows
[CHUCKLES]

that one of my weaknesses
that I will confess to

is the ability to hate you
to the bitter end.

We'll stay here tonight.
This is my aunt's place.

She died in March.

My house's on the other side
of that plant.

I can't be seen in town, though.

You need to know why?

No.

What's gonna happen to all this stuff?

LEE: My mom's cleanin' it out.

She's a teacher, though.
She got school.

No, keep that off.

And keep the windows closed tonight too.

Okay, I'mma take Kayla drivin'
behind the mall.

Hope I don't die.

I'll bring back some food for us later.

Kayla's your sister?

Yeah. Kay,

Kayla. I call her "idiot" to her face.

Or "stupid." Or whatever.

You can snoop around if
you want, I won't be offended.

See you later.

Nice work, you motard.

Found this note you put in my purse.

You're leaving?
Already?

Maren, this is Kayla.
Kayla, this is Maren.

You're a fuckin' asshole.

You said that you were gonna

Something came up.
I gotta head out of town.

I... I don't believe you anymore, Lee.

I... Where are you always going anyway?

LEE: Let's go outside, come on.

I wanna talk to you outside.

I'm going away for a little bit,
all right? That's it.

KAYLA: Is that your girlfriend?

LEE: That's my friend friend, all right?

Maybe you can meet her some other time.

Look, I can't stay, Kayla.

I just wanted to take you
drivin' like I said I would.

KAYLA: I fuckin' hate that you do this.

You know, Dad did this,
and then he didn't come back.

Don't you know every time you drive off,
we're terrified?

LEE: I'll be back in a couple of weeks.

What difference does it make?

KAYLA: You're not listenin' to me.

LEE: Yes, I am.
Two weeks tops.

I'm not Dad.
I wouldn't do that.

KAYLA: Is there anything
that you don't lie about?

And you look like a fucking
faggot in that shirt.

Honestly, fuck you, Lee.
Fuck you.

If she comes, I...

I wanna spare you that.
[CHUCKLES]

[SIGHS]

I worked summers here.
I can't get in the safe,

but they keep all the petty
cash in a drawer in the cafe.

MAREN: A cafe?
At a slaughterhouse?

Aren't there guards?

LEE: Yeah. Dale.

Deaf in both ears.

You be the bank.
[PANTING]

I wanna show you something.

[COWS MOOING]

LEE: The music's supposed to keep 'em calm.

You ever think about that...

every one of them
has a mom and a dad...

sisters, brothers, cousins, kids.

Friends even?

[COW MOOS]

A language.

Listen to them.

[COWS CONTINUE MOOING]

You never told me what was in Minnesota.

My mom.

She lives there?

I don't know.

I don't even know if she's still alive.

All I have is the name of
the town that she was born in.

Could take a while
to track her down, you know.

It might even be a dead end.

It's all I have.

Then that's where we'll start.

I can take you...

if you want.
It's a lot of driving,

but I'm up for it, if you are.

We could take our time.
See the country.

Well, Missouri and Iowa anyway.

- I don't remember after.
- [SCOFFS]

That's bullshit.

Hey, I'm not just gonna
tell you what you wanna hear.

You asked me a question,
I gotta answer it.

Would you do something with me?

- Listen to something with me?
- Yeah.

[VEHICLE APPROACHING]

Whoo! I told you they'd be back here.

[BOTH LAUGH]

- Hey.
- Hey.

I saw you guys down at
the swimming hole before.

Oh, yeah, we saw some people
down there too.

You were up there on those rocks.

Up, uh...

Upwind of us.

You get me?

Don't worry, we're friendly.

I'm Jake.
That's, uh, Bradley.

Goddamn, my name is Brad, man.
Call me what I want.

Nice to meet you, Brad.
Nice to meet you, Jake.

I'm Leon.
That's Maggie.

You just passing through?

Yeah, just passing through.
Is that a problem?

We're not here to run you out.

We thought you might be
in need of some beer.

We got you.

JAKE: Not many come through here.

- What do you say?
- [SIGHS SOFTLY]

I'm into this now, right?

Pulling meat,
bones comin' out, you know.

[CAN POPS OPEN]

And I start feeling watched.

I look around and at first,
I don't see him 'cause he's...

he's standing so still in the trees,

but then I spot him.
I'm like, "What the fuck?"

I mean, I look like
the red devil at this point.

He's just watching me like I'm...

[BRAD LAUGHS]

...Doug fuckin' Henning.

[GASPING SPOOKILY]

[JAKE AND BRAD LAUGHING]

I'm already on my feet,
and I'm runnin' at him,

and he pulls a fuckin' pistol on me.

Turns out he's an off-duty cop.

- First year on the force.
- We did

say we weren't gonna
tell nobody about that.

Oh, right, right.

So, he's a cop.

[BRAD CHUCKLES]

I think he's gonna take me down.
But he's just...

he's just looking at me.

And what did I say?

He said, "Do me now
or get the fuck gone

"'cause he ain't gonna be
no fun to eat cold."

- [BOTH LAUGHING]
- I love it.

[CACKLING]

So he says...

"Go on, back to it.
Mm-hmm.

"I gotta get a better look at this."

[SMACKS LIPS]

[CHUCKLES]
So, uh...

I suddenly feel him right there,

crouched down,
gettin' a better look.

He doesn't smell like an Eater.

But there he is.

So I ask if he wants some.

And damned if he don't nod all serious

like a food-stamp kid on samples day.

- Yeah.
- JAKE: So you know

what I gave him?

You're not one of us?

Abso-fucking-lutely normal he is!
[LAUGHS]

- Well, uh, clearly not normal.
- [LAUGHS]

Hasn't had his Full Bones yet.
But, uh...

I reckon that's coming soon enough.

"Full Bones"?

When you eat the whole thing.
Bones and all.

You ain't done that yet?

That's a big fucking deal.

It's like your first time.

There's...

before Bones and all,

and then there's after.

That's bullshit.

It's impossible,
what you're talking about.

How many people have you eaten?

JAKE: I count three.

Yes, miss.

Three people.

And you didn't have to?

You don't have to do this?

Kind of a groupie, I guess.

- Jesus Christ.
- You okay?

Jake's teaching me
how to smell other Eaters.

No, he's not.

You don't think he can do it?

BRAD: Is she all right?

[INDISTINCT CONVERSATION]

BRAD: Whoa. Fuck. Fuck.

She's lucky she's got you to help.

[URINATING]

God.

He's the one who needs the help, Brad.

[CHUCKLES]

You can see it a mile away.

You remind me
of every junkie I ever met.

You look like the kind
that's convinced himself

he's got this under his thumb.

But you pull on one little thread and...

[MIMICS SWISHING]

I saw you walk up.

Oh, no,

That's just, uh, a friend,

- [CLANG]
- Nice.

- Wow.
- Can I get another one if I sink it again?

You're not supposed to.

But, uh, no one has to know.

Damn.

Hmm.

What's there to do around here
besides this dumbass carnival?

After my friend leaves, I mean.

I close up at 11:00.

I got some weed in my car.

Hell, yeah.

- One more?
- Really?

Yeah.

- Damn. [LAUGHS]

Lucky, lucky.

My luck's not gonna run out, is it?

No, man.

I'll see that it don't.

I'll see you in an hour?

Yeah, you will.

[ON TAPE] MAREN'S FATHER: I haven't
thought much beyond this tape.

I can't.

I don't know what's going to happen to you

or what should happen to you.

I wake up nights sick to death
wondering and hoping.

Hoping that whatever
troubles you is over,

and that if there is a God in Heaven,

that you're just a regular girl

with... regular problems
and regular pain,

and that you stop wanting things

you shouldn't want, Maren.

And that your heart has a chance.

[TAPE BUTTON CLICKS]

I knew that's how it would end.

"I hope you get better."

Maybe he's right,
maybe I should pray

that I wake up one day

to find they built a maze around me.

Don't say that.

Don't.

He's wrong.

He's wrong.

You never say anything.

RADIO HOST: Only there did civilization arise.

Now, it's not my intention
to give a history lesson,

but I believe it's important
to remind ourselves

that in dealing with the economy,

we're dealing with human creativity.

This insight has represented

the underpinning of
our economic expansion.

There wasn't a car seat, Maren.

He wasn't wearing a wedding ring.

We should feel something.

'Cause we murder people.

We steal their stuff,
we move the fuck on,

and we ruin lives
that we don't even see.

Come on, why are we talking
about it like this?

We gotta do this!
We have to do it!

[SNIFFLES]

MAREN: Talking about the future,

talking about being a friend to yourself.

You don't have that.
This is too much.

No, we got 60, 70 years of this?

How dare you make this harder.

Maren, what do I...
What am I supposed...

How do I get you out of this?

What am I supposed to say right now?

Just drive.

Right.
All right.

I'm looking for someone in Bagley.

Oh. This is for the county, sweetie.

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

MAREN: Thanks.

There.

- I'll come with you.
- No, stay here.

Excuse me?
Are you Barbara Kerns?

Wait, wait. Ms. Kerns.
Ms. Kerns.

I'm Maren Yearly.

Maren.

I've traveled a very long way.

Oh, they didn't marry.

Hmm.
Yeah, we wondered.

Huh.

My husband, uh,
he died years ago.

Throat cancer.

- Sorry.
- Mm.

Sorry to surprise you like this.

You didn't know your daughter
had a child, I guess.

No.

No. When she wanted to get married,

we didn't agree.

So, it drove her away. Yeah.

Where did she meet my dad?

He didn't say?

He wouldn't say anything about her.

Ah.

Hmm. Mm.

[SIGHS]

They met in college.
Down in Mankato.

She finished two years

before he talked her into leaving.

Did he drive you here?
Is he outside?

No. He's in Maryland.

Does he know you're here?

Yeah, he let me know
where to find you.

So you haven't run away?

No.

My dad thinks that

I'm old enough to live on my own.

Oh. Uh-huh.

Well, if you're looking for
a home with your mother,

um,

I'm sorry to tell you

that she...
she's no longer with us.

What?
When?

It's a lot of years now,

and it's nothing
I wanna tell you about.

I hope you can respect that.

Well, I'm her daughter.

Yep. Makes sense now.

Why she came back so bereaved.
That's the word.

And she wouldn't tell us
anything, either.

Oh, it's just so much hiding
in one family.

I'm sorry you had to be
the child of it all.

Wait.
What was she like as a child?

Hmm.

Wow. She was your only child?

BARBARA: Well, not even ours.

Bob and I never could have
babies of our own.

But then we heard about Janelle.

She'd been left behind

a sheriff's station in Bemidji.

It was in the paper.

You know anything
about her biological parents?

No, nothing.

Except what they did to their baby.

I mean, she could have froze, you know.

It's cold here all the time.

My mother...

You can, you know, take those
photos if you want 'em.

Did she ever hurt anyone?

What kind of question is that?

I bet she did.
I know she did.

I don't know what you had
to do to cover it up

or... how much pain it caused you.

Stop this.
At once.

Look, you're never
going to see me again, okay?

You may not be her family
by blood, but I am.

And I need to know.

So, please, Mrs. Kerns,
please...

Then ask her yourself.

How?

[SIGHS]

Look, I don't know you.

You gotta understand.

I didn't know what you wanted
comin' up here.

And I hope you mean what you say

about never coming back here.

I know that sounds cold,
but I wanna be clear with ya.

I told you she was no longer with us,

but she's not...
she's not dead.

She's living in a town
called Fergus Falls.

In a state hospital there.

And we didn't put her there,

if that's what you're thinkin'.

She signed her own papers.

[DOOR OPENS]

[DOOR CLOSES]

[PANTING]
Okay.

Here.
My mother's here.

Do you want me to come in?

No.

NURSE: Mrs. Kerns' daughter.

I sure didn't expect this
when I woke up this morning.

[MUFFLED SHOUTING]

[WOMAN SCREAMING]

WOMAN #2: Calm down.

Calm down.

Is she dangerous?

It's been many years
since that was a concern.

[WOMAN 3 CRYING]

Why was it ever one?

Aggression towards the staff.
Self-harm.

But long ago.

[KEYS JINGLING]

It's possible she won't
understand who you are.

She just took her morning meds,

so she may nod off anyhow.

We'll see.

There's someone here
to see you, Ms. Kerns.

A surprise.
A wonderful surprise.

MAREN: It's Maren.

I'm Maren.

Can't she speak?

It's the medication.

[WHIMPERS, BREATHING SHAKILY]

Easy, Ms. Kerns.

I didn't come with Dad.

I didn't come with Dad.
Just came by myself.

Should I give her the letter, Ms. Kerns?

I fetched it on the way up.

[WHIMPERING]

She wrote this about
15 years ago now, must be.

I've kept it safe in her file
out there, in case.

She knew I'd come?

I'll wait right over here.

JANELLE: Maren, if a day comes
when you show up here,

I'll know it's because
your father broke his promise.

Told you something about me.

And I'll know why.

He didn't know what I was
when we married,

but he figured it out
by the time I had you.

I promised I would never hurt
either of you,

but how could we be sure?

It wasn't easy to leave.
I loved you both so much.

I thought about ending my life,

but I wanted to be here
in case you ever did come.

All I ever wanted in this world was love.

I tried, believed,

but we can't have it as we are.

All we can have is a little space,

with bars or a door that locks.

[TEARFULLY] I'm sorry
for that, Little Yearly.

For all the things I didn't do for you

and for the one thing I still can.

The world of love

- wants no monsters in it.
- [BREATHING HEAVILY]

So let me help you out of it.

- [GROWLING]
- [MAREN GASPING]

MAREN: No! Help me!

Ms. Kerns, calm down!

Maren, die.

[GASPING]

[DOOR RATTLING]

I can't open the door.
I can't open the door.

LEE: Sorry, sorry.
Here we go, here we go.

MAREN: I can't fucking with the door.

LEE: You're good.

MAREN: She's one of us.

She's one of us
but she's fucking nuts.

She ate her own fucking hands.

She said she loved my dad.

She said she wanted to be a mom.

She could have stayed.

She could have told me
what I needed to know.

But all of this...
Fuck, you know how different

this would've been if I'd had
one person on my side?

One person to talk to?

You know what I wouldn't have done?

Maybe, probably half
of what I've fucking done!

Fuck her. Fuck.

LEE: You know, if she'd stayed,

she might have hurt you, Maren. Or worse,
you might not even be here right now.

Trust me, I know what I'm
talking about with this stuff.

This is better than what I went through.

Please just stop fucking talking!

You're pissed off, and you're scared,
and you feel alone,

and you don't know what to do
with it all, it's fine.

If you wanna go at yourself
with that, I can't stop you.

But don't come at me.

You slit his throat, Lee.

- He had a wife. Kids.
- Okay.

I think you got used
to being locked up

and invisible and alone, and
now you're out in the world...

- Okay, okay.
- ...and you're seeing yourself

for the first time,
and that's freaking you out.

But you know what?
It's fucking me up too, okay?

I feel like I'm seeing myself too.
That's how this works.

- How what works?
- This!

Whatever this is.

Stop. You're wrong,
you're wrong.

What? About which part am I wrong?

I can't be around you anymore.
I can't think.

Jesus Christ.

We don't have many options, Maren.

Either you eat,
you off yourself,

or you lock yourself up
like her in there.

What's it gonna be?

Why can't you let me have this?

[SIGHS]

No.

I'm not going to be her.
I'm not going to be her.

You can decide no.

And I'm deciding that right fucking now.

I'm just getting gas.

You have the money.

Hey, Kayla.

I'm Maren, Lee's friend.

I met you at your aunt's house
a couple of months back.

I remember.

I'll talk to y'all in a minute.

MAREN: Yeah, I wanted to say hi then, but...

Do you know where Lee is?

He was at my aunt's house for a while,

but my mom wouldn't leave him alone,

so he took his tent
and moved out to the lake.

Which lake?

Um, Land Between the Lakes.

It's a state park down 641.

He comes into town when he wants to.

Well, he's just...

going through something, I guess.

But I asked him about you

and he just said that
you went another way.

I wondered why he's been staying.

I guess he was hoping
that you'd show up, right?

No, I don't know about that.

I don't know if he'd actually
even want to see me,

to be honest.

I know he was trying
to get back to you, though.

He said that?

[CHUCKLES]
God, he's an asshole.

Why is he even like this, you know?

I tell him no one even remembers

all that stuff with the cops anymore.

It was three stupid days
and they let him go.

This is about your dad?

He didn't tell you?

Our dad's a drunk.

So drunk that he'd piss
on the wall kinda guy.

He got in Lee's face a couple of times

and Lee would, you know,
try to calm him down,

and the day he left,
he wound up hitting Lee.

And when I tried to
break 'em up, he hit me, too.

Lee just lost it,

and he told me to call the cops.

And when our dad ripped
the phone out of the wall,

Lee got him in a headlock.
He told me to run into town.

And when I got back with the cops,

Lee was pretty beat up
and Dad's car was gone.

And Lee told 'em that he took off,

but there was blood on Lee,

so they had to put him in a holding cell

so they could test it.

And for a minute there,
everyone was like,

"Lee killed him,
Lee killed him."

But it was all Lee's blood.

It was all bullshit,
and they had to let him go.

And that was four years ago,

and he's been out of town
for three and a half of 'em.

It's not fair.

It's not fair.

- [DOG BARKING]

- [PEOPLE EXCLAIMING]
- MAREN: Your tent.

We should really use it.
Just get lost.

LEE: Where do you want to go?

I don't know. Anywhere.
West. Let's go west.

[LAUGHS]

MECHANIC: It's your rod bearings then.

LEE: Seriously? Shit!

That means a new engine.

I'd rather just sell it for parts.

Tell you what, you make me a
good offer, I'll sell it to you right now.

[SPLUTTERS] You don't
want to sell it out here.

- LEE: Why?
- Look around, man.

How you gonna get home?

I don't know.

You do go someplace else.

MAREN: Watching me read?

LEE: Yeah.

MAREN: Well, you should know after this,
I'm out of books.

I'll have to go to a bookstore.

LEE: May have to stop
on the way back, in Omaha.

By the way,
those guys were saying

we should have two days
of water with us

in case the engine gives out.

In case we have to wait on a ride.

We should get some new wheels
as soon as we can.

I wish we could save it.

I'd rather have a van, anyway.

I learned how to drive in that truck.

You learned how to kiss in that truck.

I knew how to kiss before you, Mr. Kentucky.

Ah.

I sang to my girl in that truck.

Kayla told me about...

what happened with your dad.

Kayla doesn't know what happened.

He sounds like he was a fucking asshole.

LEE: I don't wanna...

I don't want to talk about my dad.

I don't sweat this stuff out
like you do.

You know, Kayla said that he...

that he hit you both
the day that he left.

That's true.

Told her to get the cops.
She did.

And then he left.

I don't know, I don't
really believe that. I mean,

there must've been a lot of blood
on you for the cops to bring you in.

If you wanna know, Maren,
he came for me, okay?

He tried to rip me open
with his teeth.

That's the first time
I ever smelled it on someone.

What happened after that?

[LEE SIGHS]

Lee,

you can tell me.

[LEE SIGHS, TUTS]

[EXHALES HEAVILY]
He, uh...

He passed out.

I got him in a... I put him
in a fucking... [SNIFFLES]

headlock, and bashed
an ashtray over his head.

Dragged his fucking body to his car.

Put him in the car,

and I drove to this barn
about a mile outside town

that I knew was abandoned.

[SNIFFLES]

How long was he in the barn?

Uh, three days.

I think, yeah.

Three days.

I duct-taped the shit out of him too.

Everywhere except his nostrils,

so he could breathe.

And when I finally came back...

It's the sound he was making,

it's the noise and the breathing.

He knew what was gonna happen.

[EXHALES HEAVILY]

[MAREN SNIFFLES]

What did you do?

I ate him right the fuck up.

And it felt fucking great.

I felt high as a motherfucker.
[INHALES SHARPLY]

Probably would have killed myself

if it weren't for Kayla.

I feel like I should have, you know.

No. No, stop.

[LEE BREATHES HEAVILY]

I would have done the same thing.

I would have done the same thing.

- Do you mean it?
- I would have done it in my way but I would have done it.

You protected the people
that you love.

You don't think I'm a bad person?

All I think is that I love you.

[LEE BREATHES SHAKILY]

[LEE EXHALES DEEPLY]

[LEE SNIFFLES]

[LEE CRYING]

MAREN: Where do we go next?

LEE: Anywhere.

MAREN: Let's drive back.

Until the truck gives out somewhere.

And then just stay.

We can get a place, jobs.

You know, like people do.

LEE: You wanna be people?
Let's be people.

MAREN: Yeah.
Let's be them for a while.

LEE: Yeah, we're in Ann Arbor now.

Ann Arbor.

Maren got a job at the university,

at the bookstore,
so, we're right near campus.

What'd you say?

Yeah, maybe if we're here long enough.

Hey, Kayla says hi.

- Hi.
- Maren says hi.

- She wants to come up.
- Yeah.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

Lee, I brought your...

[SIGHS]

[BREATHES DEEPLY]

- [MAREN WHIMPERING]
- [SHUSHING]

[SULLY BREATHING HEAVILY]

I'm gonna take my hand away,

and you're not gonna scream.

Because Sully's a friend

and we don't scream at friends.

[GASPING]

Where's your...
Where's your cutie-pie?

[LAUGHING]

I saw him.

I saw him walk out of here
half an hour ago.

I don't know.

What's all this for, Sully?

Ever...

Ever since I drove away from you,

up there in Minnesota,

nothing's felt right.

MAREN: What does that mean?

[SMACKS LIPS]

It means...

[BREATHES HEAVILY]

It means...

It mean... It...

It means unfinished business.

Sully, me and Lee...

we are together now.

[MAREN GASPS]

That's not the business I'm talkin' about.

I don't mind.

I don't... I don't mind
if you don't like Sully.

What I mind is how much
you know about him

in that little head of yours.

You don't think
I'd tell anyone, right?

[SULLY GROANS]

I mean, who would believe me?

[SULLY GROANS]

And you're the one who told me
you don't kill any...

You don't kill, right?

You told me that, Sully.

You know, I told...

I used to try and tell people
the truth, you know.

They never took me serious.

[SULLY SIGHS]

I just wanted to be...

I just wanted to be with
someone who understood.

Do you know what I mean?

Do you?

Mm.

Mm.

[SNIFFLING]

Hmm.

[SULLY GRUNTS SOFTLY]

[DOOR OPENS QUIETLY]

MAREN: Hey.

You never get sick of yourself?

Sully just wants to sleep at night.

That's all.

Sully just wants to sleep.

Sleep it off.

I said,

stop calling yourself Sully.

Shh!

[BREATHING HEAVILY]

[SCREAMING]

[LEE GRUNTING]

[SULLY YELLS]

[ALL GRUNTING]

[SULLY YELLING]

[GROANS]

Get off, Maren.
Get off.

- [MAREN GRUNTING]
- [SULLY GROANING]

[SULLY GASPS DEEPLY]

[MAREN GASPING]

[LEE GRUNTING]

LEE: Careful.

Come on.

[PANTING AND GRUNTING]

[SULLY GROANING WEAKLY]

Up.

[SULLY GROANING]

[SULLY WHEEZING]

[PANTING]

[SCREAMING IN PAIN]

[GASPING IN PAIN]

[GASPING DEEPLY]

[SULLY STOPS BREATHING]

[PANTING]

[PANTING]

[CONTINUES PANTING]

[GRUNTING]

LEE: That's the man you met,
the one who followed you?

I smelled him two blocks from here.

How the fuck did he find you?

MAREN: Oh, no.

[LEE COUGHING]

[LEE GASPING]

[LEE COUGHING]

MAREN: Hang on.

[BREATHING NERVOUSLY]

Look.
[WHIMPERS]

Fuck, he hit your lung.

We gotta go to the ER.

Air is coming out of this.
I can see it.

He got Kayla.

He got Kayla.

Don't think about that right now.

LEE: Fuck.

MAREN: Lee, we can't handle
this by ourselves, and...

- Am I bad?
- No.

No, no, Lee.
You're good, all right?

You're in shock.

- Am I bad?
- No.

No.

We can't call an ambulance, Lee.

We can't let anybody in here.

We're just gonna go.

Come on.

- I want you to eat first.
- Come on, Lee.

Come on.

- I want you to eat me.
- No.

- I want you to eat...
- I'm not gonna eat him.

- No. I want you to eat...
- I don't wanna.

I want you to eat me.

I want you to eat.

- I want you to feed.
- No.

- I want you to eat.
- No.

- I don't wanna. I can't. Stop.
- I want you to do it, Maren.

- LEE: I'm done here.
- MAREN: No. No. No.

- I want you to do it, Maren.
- Lee, stop.

- No. No, I can't.
- Bones and all.

- MAREN: I can't. Stop.
- [LEE COUGHS]

- LEE: It's beautiful.
- MAREN: No. No. Stop.

Let me up. Let me up. Let me up.

LEE: It's the easiest thing,
Maren, love.

MAREN: No. No. No.

LEE: Just love me and eat.
