(somber music)

(wind whistling)

(gentle music)

(birds chirping)
(wind whistling)

(tense music)

(grass rustling)

(suspenseful music)

(horn honking)

(Pablo yawning)

- [Herman] Oye, you
missed the flamingos.

- Are we close?

- Almost there, partner.

Look alive, will you?

(Pablo sighs)

(gentle music)

- Hmm, here.

(clock ticking)

- He looks like a nice kid.

- Few weeks ago his ex-girl took off.

That's when he started acting strange.

- How?

- He got a pet bunny.

- Well, after all, the boy
did just get his heart broken.

- I told him, "Clarence, don't
let the girl move in here.

"Two women under the
same roof means trouble."

(chuckles) But the youth don't listen.

(ice clinking)

Anyhow, that night, I was
knitting in this chair.

Next thing I know Clarence's hands

are around my neck

and his eyes are dark and distant.

The room got really hot.

Smelled like burnt flesh.

I felt an evil presence
behind him watching me

till I passed out.

When I woke, I found myself on the floor

covered in ashes.

- And Clarence?

- I told you, he was taken by Satan.

- Um, Gertrude, on the phone you said

that you had physical proof
that Clarence had been taken,

you know, to Hell, I mean.

- He's been communicating with me.

(suspenseful music)

At night I hear his
voice whispering in pain

like his throat's been cut.

I wake up, I have these scratches.

He uses my blood to send me messages.

And a few days ago he told me where he is.

- [Herman] Where?

- Your ad says you work free of charge.

Did I read that right?

- I think we're gonna have to decline.

- But I need your help.

- Your son is alive, living
in Vegas with his ex-girl.

And you, you just want a free ride.

- [Pablo] But what about
the scratches, Abuelo?

- Are you calling me a liar?

- No, no, no, no, no.

But you see, nightmares and the afterlife

are two different things.

- You're afraid of what you'll find.

- I'll tell you what I'll find.

I'll find a son who fled the nest

trying to get away from
his mother's ghost.

- Out, imposters, out with you!

(newspaper thudding)

Out!

Get outta here!

(dog barking)

- Next time be meticulous
about your fact-checking

so we don't have to drive
over here all the time.

(speaking in foreign language)

- She couldn't show me the evidence

on the phone, Abuelo.

- [Herman] Oh, she ran out of
ketchup writing on her wall.

(dogs barking)

(Herman sighing)

- So the girlfriend is Satan?

- Ah, she and Clarence
probably wanted to get rid

of the old girl.

- Oh, at least he left her alive.

- Well, of course.

Otherwise it would have been murder.

(dog barking)

They probably didn't wanna end up in jail.

- Or Hell.

(Herman sighing)

Abuelo, are--

- It's so cold.

- [Pablo] Are you okay?

You're sweating.

Should I call 9-1-1?

- No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

It's okay, it's okay.

It's just a stomach pain.

- [Pablo] Then why are
you holding your chest?

- What?

- [Pablo] If it's stomach pains,

why are you holding your chest.

- It's all connected.

Listen, why don't you take the wheel, huh?

Come on.

Did you bring your permit?

- Yeah but--

- (speaking in foreign language) Go, go.

(light rhythmic music)

(Herman sighing)

Ah (sighs).

(speaking in foreign language)

- I'm going, you have to

put this it in.
(speaking foreign language)

- Look (speaking in foreign language).

- [Pablo] There we go.

Okay, thank you, Abuelo.

(speaking in foreign language)

(suspenseful Spanish guitar music)

(gentle flute music)

- Baby, I had to borrow your bathing suit.

(giggles) But I'll be back pronto.

Okay, call if you need anything,

(speaking in foreign language).

- You guys are back early.

- What was that tune you were playing?

I like it.

- Oh, I never learn the titles,

just the melodies.

- Oh, keep on playing it.

Maybe will lighten the mood.

- (scoffs) You got it, Herman.

- Hey.

- Hey, you, how was it?

- You know, slow progress.

- Oh, buck up, buddy.

Maybe you weren't meant to
be an afterlife investigator.

Maybe you were meant to be a musician.

- What?

- Come with me tomorrow to my music group.

You could pick something up like a piano

or a guitar or flute.

(Herman coughing)

- I gotta file this.

(Herman coughing)

- You can find other
hobbies and Herman, too.

You should see your faces
every time you get back

from a case.

- We always have fun.

You just never see it.

- All I see here is a
bunch of fake stories.

- Okay, well, what if one day

we actually get a small clue
that the afterlife exists, hmm?

I mean, don't you ever
wanna know if people

aren't really gone?

- Maybe you should focus a
little bit more on this life

and come with me tomorrow.

Be normal for once.

- I have to take Abuelo
to the hospital tomorrow.

- Oh, sorry.

I can take you.

- No, no, no, it's cool.

You do your thing and
we'll just take a cab.

- You sure?

- Yeah, yes.

- All righty.

(door clacking)

- Which pill is that?

- Relax, Pablito, it's only aspirin.

- Yeah, and you're gonna OD on it

if you don't slow down.
- I already told you,

I had too much breakfast.

- We need to change your diet.

There's too much red meat.

It's all connected like you always say.

- There you go again with the red meat.

You need to stop
listening to the internet.

Look, you know that one day

we're gonna be apart, huh?

Ah, that will only be temporary.

- If you truly believe
that then what's the point

of even looking for proof?

- Well, even if you knew the answer,

don't you still want to ask the question?

(speaking in foreign language)

There's nothing wrong with me.

The only thing is that my
thumb keeps falling off.

Look.

See?

- Abuelo, I think I'm a
little too old for that trick.

- (chuckles) It's not a trick.

You do it.

- It looks bad.

(phone ringing)

You can keep coming here every week.

It's up to you, Hermano.

The Lord knows we're doing our best.

- Eh, I think this is working.

- [Dr. Perdomo] Hmm?

- Yeah, yesterday's incident
coulda been just stress.

- Well, it could also be the sickle cells

causing lung damage, hence,
the acute pain in your chest.

- Are you trying to
get rid of me, Perdomo?

- (chuckles) We both know
you always like the truth.

Pablito's gonna need a new legal guardian.

Have you thought about that?

- [Pablo] What?

- Pablito, please step out.

Doctor needs to check my prostate.

- Why don't you do things his
parents used to do with him?

(people chattering)

- Hey, we're doing
something important here.

My daughter would've approved.

- You'll see the Heavens, Herman.

Sooner or later we all do.

- Oh, there are other places than Heaven.

(Herman sighing)

- [Dr. Perdomo] Hmm.

(people chattering)

(phone ringing)

(suspenseful music)

(people chattering)

- So?

(speaking in foreign language)

What did Dr. Perdomo say?

- Everything is stable.

Although I must say that I was
a little bit concerned there

for a second.

Pablito, I did wanna talk to you.

- Why?

- Well, I think maybe, just maybe,

we should take a little break
from the investigations, eh?

- Oh.

- Just for now, just for now.

It's your summer vacation.

And we can pick up the slack later.

- Sure, and you need your rest, too.

It's, it's a good idea.

- Great.

(eerie music)

(urinals flushing)

(door creaking)

(distant upbeat music)

- Gertrude is dead.

- Pardon?

- Gertrude, she had a
stroke or heart attack.

Can't remember.

- Really?

I am so sorry.

Are you related?

- (chuckles) That woman
was a waste of life

and one of your worst clients probably.

It's nice to meet you, Herman.

Looking to enlist your services.

- Sorry, sir, I don't
know which ad you saw,

but we don't provide any services.

- Hmm.

We only provide assistance.

- Just need your help to find something,

something you've already found
once before for someone else.

- What?

- The fruit.

It's still in the same
place you last saw it,

its potential being wasted.

- And who may I ask wants it?

- Can only reveal my identity

if you choose to assist.

- Abuelo.

(audience applauding)

Let's go.

- Maybe trying to
convince the wrong person.

How would you like
(door clacking)

your grandfather to have eternal life?

(eerie music)

- What kind of fruit
are you talking about?

- The fruit, from the tree of life.

Immortality is possible with your help.

- Right.

Let's go, Abuelo, come on.

Come on!

- Good day, sir.

(water splashing)

(toilet flushing)

We should at least consider it.

- What happened to taking a break?

- I don't know but this is unexpected.

It's almost like fate.

- Right, Abuelo, fate.

And how does that guy even know your name?

- No idea.

But think about it.

Today, we were giving up,

and now this suddenly falls in our laps?

- This has nothing to
do with the afterlife.

All he did was babble about
some tree, fruit thing.

- Just a fruit, no tree.

I've seen it on a past investigation.

But I wonder how he knows about it.

- Well, we're not gonna find out.

We're not gonna drive around
with your stomach pains.

- I know.

And you're right.

Let's go home, come on.

(somber music)

(speaking in foreign language)

- Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

- Didn't exactly make a stellar
first impression back there.

The name's Dee.

- Get out of our house.

- Dee, listen closely.

- Careful there, Herman.

You don't wanna step in that now.

You two like to think of
yourselves as believers.

Yet, you go around doubting
everything and everyone.

Thus, brought you living proof.

Look familiar?

- Is that Gertrude's?

I'm gonna call the cops
and animal control.

- Wait, wait, Pablito, wait.

- What?

- He forgot to put the carrot in.

- Better watch or you'll miss it.

Go.

(chain rattling)

- Shoo, shoo.
(tense music)

- [Herman] No!

(trap thudding)
(rabbit screeching)

- Oh.

(trap clanking)

(eerie music)

(rabbit crunching)
(chains rattling)

(rabbit squeaking)

That's a good little boy.

Yes.

- That was a pretty cool trick.

- No, no, no, no, no, not a trick.

(wind whistling)

- Where did you get the rabbit?

- It came to me.

After Fabio died.

- Fabio's dead?

- For a long time.

He left behind this recipe for an elixir

which he tested on this rabbit.

But recovering the key ingredient

has become an obstacle.

- And you, you want me to get it for you?

- For us.

I mean, once you locate the fruit,

the elixir can be made again and shared

with the both of you.

Quid pro quo.

- Okay, I don't know how you put together

this optical illusion, but we're--

- Wanna test it yourself, hmm?

There's a way out of your predicament.

Contribute, you won't have
to worry about the afterlife.

You can stay together.

Here, in this life.

This is the complete recipe.

Now, Fabio's widow tried making

the elixir herself unsuccessfully.

- What, did that come
with the rabbit, too?

- The boy still hasn't learned to ask

the right questions, hmm?

- Does she still has the fruit?

- Yes.

You know the layout of her place,

but most importantly, you know
what the fruit looks like.

Hence, my proposal.

- I think you know a little bit too much.

- An investigator's only
as good as his sources.

I'll be back in a couple of hours.

- Hold on, we didn't agree to help you

just because you came in--

- Start packing.

- (sniffs) Real blood.

But, but how?

- No trick.

- I just don't understand.

I mean, this whole thing with the woman

and then the fruit.

- Irene, she's the one that
hired me to find the fruit.

- Well, why doesn't she
know how to make the elixir?

- That's a good question.

- I don't know, Abuelo.

This guy shows up and he says
that he's an investigator

but at the same time he chops up bunnies?

Even if it's all true and
we could become immortal,

he's probably just gonna use us

to get the elixir for himself.

- Maybe we should let this one slide.

Hmm?

- Although, if it does work,

this could be our chance
to find something real.

- That's pretty strong evidence.

- We could be like vampires.

- Well, well.

Hmm, maybe we should try it this time.

But if it gets risky, we are out.

- Okay, Abuelo, but this
time, I'm in charge.

(door clattering)

- Hey, how'd it go with the doc?

(tense rhythmic music)

Did you guys kill a bear?

- It's gonna be a long
drive so we're gonna need

a driver and a regular car.

- Okay, you guys are clearly busy.

I'll come back later.

- No, wait, wait, wait, hold on,

wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Hold on.

Listen, I know it's weird.

I just need your help one day.

Just the rabbit thing.

Listen, we're talking immortality.

I need this--

(speaking in foreign language)

- Okay, Herman, I'll be your pilot.

Let me grab the keys to my mom's car.

- Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on, slow down.

I meant your mom should drive us.

- No, I got it.

- Unn unn, we still need her permission.

- Me, gone a few days?

She'll be relieved.

(Pablo chuckles)

(speaking in foreign language)

(Beatrice giggling)

(birds chirping)

- Must say, it adds some nice flavor

bringing along a lovely
young lady with us,

especially one so keen
on flirting with danger.

- Yep.

Who doesn't like a little
fear with their death?

I mean, unless you can't die, of course,

like Fluffy back there.

- Hey, so I was thinking when we get there

we should just tell the
lady that we were close by--

- Oh no, no, no, no.

Irene might recognize me.

I would have a lot of catching up to do.

- Relax, Abuelo, you look
nothing like those old pictures

you're always showing me.

- Let's see the location first

then we choose our approach.

- Any information you wanna share?

- You'll find out soon enough.

- Dude, why are you always so mysterious.

It's not helping.

- Shh.

- You shush.

- So what's the deal with this fruit?

Is it a papaya, an apple, a raspberry?

- [Dee] It's sacred.

- What do you mean?

- Supposedly it grew from a tree

whose fruits were fed by
the Fountain of Youth.

(tense music)
(insects chirping)

(bird trilling)

As a detective, I thought
it was a silly request,

but eventually I tracked
it down in the Everglades.

(birds chirping)

(bird trilling)

(twig crunching)

(ethereal music)

(suspenseful music)

(Fabio grunting)

(liquid bubbling)

After that, my job was
complete so I let them be.

I can show you what the fruit looks like

if you let us read the recipe.

- And how does one know
that's the real fruit?

- How do we know you have the real recipe?

- How do we know God's real?

I mean, no one's ever
seen the man or woman.

- Hey!

We will be extremely vulnerable

if we cannot trust each other.

- It's hideous.

- Well, I never said I was an artist.

- Enough.

- Okay, okay.

- There's a motel near Irene's place.

Let's get some rest.

We'll get a fresh start tomorrow morning.

- [Herman] Sure.

(birds chirping)

(lively salsa music)

(hand thudding)

- Welcome to the Omega Motel.

Need a room?

Our rooms have plenty of room.

Four people,

one room.
- Hey, we,

we really need a plan.

(speaking in foreign language)

- We still need to see Irene's house.

(Beatrice sighs)

- [Dee] You can sleep now.

- I thought you wanted to rest.

- Where do you suggest one lie?

- [Beatrice] Can you both quit it?

I can't sleep with all
this negative energy.

- [Dee] Pardon me.

(door clacking)

(Pablo sighs)

(hole cover clicking)

(suspenseful music)

- Bea.

Psst.

- What?

(man grunts)

(Beatrice gasps)

- Abuelo, hurry.

(speaking in foreign language)

(crickets chirping)

Come on.

- Pack your bags and go home.

- Well, someone needs some manners.

- Uh, sir, can I go now?

I really don't like confrontation.

- Good job.

Stay sharp.

- I think you have the wrong idea, sir.

We mean no harm.

- You mentioned the lady
Irene when you came in?

Who sent you?

- No one.

- We've come to join you.

The House of Nothing welcomes
the churchless, does it not?

- You, you smell of faith, blind faith

that found its way to our doorstep before,

only wishing to destroy what we've built.

- Inform the lady of the
house that we will pay her

a visit tomorrow morning.

Only she can determine our worth.

(door creaking)

- The House of Nothing?

- Irene's recruited a group of outcasts

to help her remake the elixir.

We just met two of them.

- Well, they were peeping inside my room

and where I come from,
they're called perverts.

- Mmm, having eyes
everywhere is the best way

to spot your enemies.

- What enemies?

- Every religious person.

- And you didn't consider
mentioning this to us?

- It was difficult enough
to get you out here.

You're the one that said Irene's name.

They were just trying to scare us off

thinking we were after her.

Now there's only one way in.

(suspenseful music)

(door knocker clacking)

- [Larter] May I help you?
(birds chirping)

(dog barking)

- Good morning, sir.

We're here.

- And?

- We're here to join you guys, remember?

I think I hit his good eye.

- What makes you think
we would accept you?

- Thought this interview
would be conducted

by the lady of the house
not a mere servant.

- She respects my opinion very much.

- Listen, buddy, we know
you don't like new faces

and I'm sure she appreciates your loyalty,

but why don't you do
your job and let us in

to speak with her?

(somber music)

(footsteps clacking)

- Don't look back.

It's very rare that
someone knocks on my door

eager to submit themselves
to the House of Nothing.

There must be a great explanation

of why there are four
of you here right now.

I'm listening.

- We come from further south.

Our church and God expelled
us and we've been searching

for guidance ever since.

- I'm not a guide.

I don't pretend to explain
the ways of the universe.

- Perhaps, but--

- You've said enough.

Why are you here?

- We've been religious
people our whole lives, so--

- I'm asking you why did your church

cast you out?

- My grandfather brought
me here and so I--

- [Irene] And what do
your parents have to say?

- They have nothing to say.

- Nice outfit, ma'am.

- Madam.

With what lies did you
raise your grandchildren?

- We were raised Catholics.

Stories about this house made us curious.

Maybe here we can find a new purpose.

- Curiosity is only the first step.

To earn your place in this house,

you must remove Jesus from
your heart completely.

Admit he's a lie, a phony.

- Yes.

- [Irene] Yes, what?

- Yes, Jesus is a damn lie.

Please, make us feel whole again.

- Mmm nnn.

That's still not enough.

(chuckles) But let's see,

let's see if your two hands at work

can do more

than a hundred clasped in prayer.

- You will now begin the trial period.

Let me show you where
the new contenders stay.

(birds chirping)
(gentle upbeat music)

We are always on the
alert here for invaders.

Some of our religious
neighbors like to harass us

every chance they get.

To warn the other members,
you'll be given one of these.

(bell ringing)

Just ring it if you need help.

- [Man] Invaders!

- It's just a drill!

Stay sharp.

Hoo.

(suspenseful music)

For today you may observe.

Tomorrow you will be
expected to contribute.

A special plant needs to
be harvested frequently.

If you have any questions, ask each other.

Don't bother anyone.

- What the heck are these?

- No questions.

Take whichever rooms you like.

Tonight the lady will
announce your presence.

Dinner will be served

in the grand banquet hall.
(Herman coughing)

I shall see you all there.

- I'm fine, (coughing) I'm fine.

- Abuelo, do you remember anything else

about this house?
(people chattering)

How to get around--

- Sort of, yes.

- We already know they don't like visitors

so we should keep blending in.

- Good point.

Some people break very easily.

- I didn't break.

I just knew that Abuelo would
be able to convince Irene

to let us stay.

He's more credible.

Sorry that you had to call Jesus that,

but you know, they're just words.

They don't actually mean--

- So when we pray, are
those just words, too?

- No, but, but this is different.

It's different, right?

- Don't look at me.

- It got us this far, Pablito,
and that's what we needed.

(speaking in foreign language)

Okay?

- Supposed to be observing.

Let's partner up and look for some clues.

- Right.

Let's go, Bea.

- Yep.

(Dee chuckling)

- Clock's ticking.

(bell ringing)

(suspenseful music)

(bells ringing)

(people shouting)

(bells ringing)

- [All] Invaders, invaders, invaders.

Invaders, invaders.

- [Man] Get 'em!

- [Woman] Get 'em!

- Should we help them?

- I don't think they need us.

(bells ringing)

- [Man] Invaders.

Invaders!

(people shouting)

Invaders!

(people shouting)

Invaders!

Invaders!

- [Woman] Invaders, invaders!

(birds chirping)

- [Man And Woman] Nothing before life.

- Nothing after death.

- What?

- Their slogan.

- Oh.

(suspenseful music)

(tense music)

- The fruit's not down there.
(birds chirping)

- I know.

- Oh, of course.

You need to see where Fabio was murdered.

- Murdered?

- Someone pushed him.

The water took care of the rest.

- Did they catch him?

- Many people wanted
his experiments to end.

Whoever did this is still running free.

(bell ringing)

Dinnertime.

(ethereal music)

- Go home, Herman.

(Herman panting)

- Have you ever seen a dead body before?

- No.

- Well, they're not
supposed to look this nice.

At least my parents didn't.

- Come on.

(somber organ music)

(people chattering)

(speaking in foreign language)

- Abuelo, we found Fabio's dead body,

frozen in a shed.

- Are you sure it was him?

- Oh yeah.

He looked just like
the paintings but dead.

- Why would she keep his corpse?

- Maybe she still need it for clues,

to find his murderer.

- Fabio was killed?

- So I heard.

(hands clapping)

- There once was a time when
all people believe in God.

And the church ruled.

No wonder we call it the Dark Ages.

(people chuckling)

Today, many still believe in paradise.

But one has to be worthy of it.

One must live by the rules

or be punished for eternity.

Oh, oh, my esteemed house,

we're closer than ever

to showing everyone

that God is not needed

if we learn to fool death.

(laughing)

Nothing before life.

- [Members] Nothing after death.

- [Dee] Nothing after death.

- As you detected,

we have new guests among us.

They've asked me to let
them join the house.

Unfortunately we have no room

for wolves in sheep's clothing.

(tense music)

- What is this, another test?

- Oh no, you already failed.

- Pablo, I can't do spicy.

- We told the truth.

- You mean the truth about
you shouldn't spying?

Or the truth

about what you're doing here?

- But you said we could look around.

- Let the old man have the first taste.

(ominous music)

(speaking in foreign language)

(tense music)

I never saw a purple cow.
(slow lighthearted music)

I never hope to see one.

But I can tell you anyhow,

I'd rather see than be one (laughing).

Do you wish to confess?

Or maybe it's not hot enough.

(tense music)

- Abuelo.

- More juice.

- Okay, okay.

Okay, please stop.

We're really here because we're here

to find Fabio's killer.

Sorry for misleading you,

but we care deeply about this case.

- Lies.

Lies.

I only see a weasel trying
to squeak his way free.

- He was a friend.

- Really?

And how old are you again?

- Well, not my friend.

- I didn't know what
had happened to Fabio.

You never called.

You never called.

I could help.

- How would I call you
after the way you left?

Herman.

Did you really think I
wouldn't recognize you?

You look just like
Father in his last days.

- Father?

Like a priest?

- Pablito, (speaking in foreign language).

- (speaking in foreign
language) You have a sister?

- Half sister.

- Can we talk?

- Um, can you let us go please?

- Unless you wanna feed him
broken glass barbecue next.

(insects chirping)

- Answer these questions.

If I catch you lying again, I'll...

(Larter groans)

(Beatrice chuckles)

- Blood type?

What is this?

Are they trying to get our organs?

- The younger the better.

(Beatrice groans)

- Why didn't Abuelo tell me about her?

It woulda been nice to know
that I had more family.

- Nice?

Dude, she's off her meds.

And good save with that
slick lie about Fabio.

- Yeah.

Let's just hope Abuelo
can keep up the story.

- I didn't take you for a trickster.

- You have developed some
torture skills, too, you know.

- Best way to learn is through punishment.

At least I didn't crucify you.

(dog barking)

- That's so out of character for you.

- There is enough hurt to go around.

Oh yes.

It was one thing to consider
Fabio's research a sin.

But, but not hearing from you

in decades, that's heartless.

- As if you have made a name for it.

- You were the one who walked away.

- I was too rigid back then.

You know things change with age.

- So when you renounced
your faith this morning--

- I was being flexible.

Look, I want to solve this case really.

That's the least I could do.

But I needed more information
before involving you.

- What happened to the boy's parents?

- They died.

My daughter Debbie left me in charge.

(sighs) God's big plan.

- I see.

(dog barking)

And who's the peculiar
gentleman that came with you?

- He's the reason I'm here.

Look, I've been doing

afterlife investigations for a while.

A fool's errand, I know.

The evidence is always scant at best.

But then I met this
fellow who said he owned

an immortal rabbit.

So I went to check the
story and there he was.

- Choncho?

Is he still alive?

- Well, he's more like the hopping dead.

But he's the reason why
I learn about Fabio.

- (sighs) So the elixir worked.

- I still need to see it work on a human.

(dog barking)

(insects chirping)

- Looks like Herman's taking
matters into his own hands.

- Maybe they're just patching things up.

- Or sharing valuable
information without us.

- I'm sure this is all
part of his strategy.

He'll probably call us in soon.

Where are you going?

- Need rest.

- My theory is that night,

one of the religious invaders

saw the elixir work on Choncho.

So he attacked Fabio and
took the ingredients list.

But he missed the fruit.

It's the last missing piece.

- So you think a man did it?

- A woman would have succeeded already.

- Oh, I'm sure.

- I created the house
expecting he'd come back

to get the fruit.

- But do you still have it?

- It's the only thing
keeping the murderer here.

- He's disguised as one of your members?

- I've yet to catch him.

- Hmm, you may be in danger, Irene.

- (chuckles) He needs me alive.

The fruit will rot away without my care.

- Oh, he must be getting desperate.

I mean, with you getting older.

- I seem to be aging better than you.

- (chuckles) Only on the outside.

(Irene chuckles)

I think we need to catch the killer now.

- But I have one more question.

How did your friend find Choncho?

(light knocking)

- Sorry to interrupt, madam.

We're just worried about Herman.

He needs some rest.

- Where is the other gentleman?

- Oh, he went back to his room.

- He found it in a pet store.

(doors creaking)

(speaking in foreign language)

- [Irene] Make sure nobody
leaves the property.

- [Women] Yes, madam.

- I think it's best if
you all get some sleep.

- We'll rest better if we find Dee.

- I can give you something from the garden

to help you relax.

- No, no.

No, no, thank you,

thank you.
- Fine.

I'll take you all back to your rooms.

Come on.
(somber music)

(Pablo sighing)

(books thudding)

- These pervs have eyes everywhere.

- Dee's really complicating things.

We need to find the fruit and get out.

- Right, yeah, about that.

- What?

- Well, if we succeed,
(gentle music)

you're not thinking about
taking the elixir, too, right?

- Well, of course I'm thinking about it.

- I mean, I get that
you wanna save Herman,

but did you consider
possibly leaving things

the way they are?

- But this could be my chance
to change everything, Bea,

so why wouldn't I?

- Okay, well, what about your parents?

What if there is an afterlife?

Then you'd never see them again.

- So now you suddenly believe in Heaven.

- (chuckles) No.

I just, it's just something to consider.

- I'm gonna stick with the sure bet,

an elixir that can save Abuelo's life.

- Okay, fair enough.

We'll have better luck tomorrow.

- Yeah, for sure.

- Good night.

- Good night, Bea.

(Pablo sighing)

(birds chirping)

- I thought we were
here to make the elixir

not solve a cold case.

- Well, that would be easier to do

if you didn't keep disappearing
in the middle of the night.

- Nah, needed a distraction.

With everyone looking
around, less eyes on you.

Keep watch on Herman.

He has a soft spot for his sister.

- Half sister.

(somber music)

- Soon, could be three
hands holding you down.

- So you do have more magic
tricks up your sleeve.

- Magic tricks didn't bring you this far.

Door's open, get moving.

And remind Herman of the mission

before he slips up and
things get outta hand.

(birds chirping)

(suspenseful music)

- Can you get the door please?

- [Pablo] I got it.

- How did you get out?

- Oh, was I supposed to
stay locked in my room?

- Pablito, she's just
trying to protect you.

- Listen, Aunt Irene,
I'm on your side here.

I spoke to Dee and he's just scared

and he's hiding because, you know.

- Your house methods.

- Exactly.

Yeah, I mean, after last night,

I wanted to run away, too,

but we're family.

- We searched for him all night.

Does an invisibility cloak?

- The man's really good at deception.

- Then how do you know
Choncho was not a trick?

- Choncho?

- The rabbit.

- Oh.

- I want to see if the
elixir works on Choncho

with my own eyes.

- Oh, you will get Choncho back.

And he can help us catch Fabio's killer.

- How so?

- Think about it.

The killer saw the elixir
work on the rabbit that night.

Besides us, only he would
be able to recognize him.

If he sees Choncho again, he may think

the elixir is inside him
and may want to extract it.

- So he'll try to steal Choncho.

- And that's how we catch him.

Don't need to endanger the fruit.

- The fruit?

You mean, the one you helped her get?

- Yes.
- I hired him.

It was not a favor.

- He always speaks about that fruit.

How magical it is and blah, blah, blah,

but Aunt Irene, I'm just like you.

I need to see things with my own eyes.

- Oh, I'm starting to like the boy.

Maybe it's not that bad that he stays.

- Stay?

- Big brother here thinks it's wise

if I take care of you after he's gone.

After all, we're family.

(laughing) Don't stress.

I'm only considering it, uh?

- I'll be 18 soon.

I can watch over myself thank you.

- Sure you can, champ.

- Irene, tell the others
to lay back, will you, huh?

Dee will come out of his hole soon

and we'll talk to him.

- The search will be over

when I get my hands on Choncho.

- If you scare Dee away,
you'll never get your hands--

- He won't get away, I can assure you.

- [Pablo] So that's why
you brought me here.

- Pablito, I'm working on plan B.

(birds chirping)

- (laughing) Stop trying
to make decisions for me

without asking me first.

- My chest pains are not going away.

- Exactly!

That's why we need to
focus on finding the fruit.

- I can get Irene to tell me where it is.

- Oh yeah?

How?

- I'm working on it.

- I'm no fool, Abuelo.

All you've been talking
about since we got here

is how to solve Fabio's case.

- Hey, you were the one that told her

we were here for this.

I'm just playing along.

- No, you're trying to
get on Irene's good side

so that she can babysit me.

- No.
- I mean, look

at what she did to you.

- You don't really know her that well.

Better Irene than a stranger.

- She believes that, she
believes that Jesus is a phony.

- That was my fault.

I pushed her down this road.

(Herman sighs)

- Listen, if you don't care
about finding the fruit

and you wanna let yourself
die, fine, whatever.

- Who knows a route I'll
take once you're gone.

Bea?

- Thanks for knocking.

- What's going on?

- The rabbit's back.

- Where?

- I don't know.

I left it on the bed two seconds ago.

Where's Herman?

- He's busy trying to make
Irene my legal guardian.

- No way.

Has he lost his mind?

- Yeah, well, I'm not
staying here that's for sure.

(Beatrice chuckles)

- (gasps) Sneaky.

(lively suspenseful music)

- I think he's waiting for us.

(birds chirping)

(door clattering)

(slow suspenseful music)

- There's something here.

(Beatrice gasps)

(Beatrice chuckles)

Where did she go?

- I don't know.

All I'm worried about
are these damn peppers.

(water dripping)

- Shh.

Listen.

(Beatrice gasps)

(Pablo gasps)

- Fabio?

(Irene sighs)

(tense music)

(Herman sighs)

(hand crackling)

- Go home.

Yes, I will.

(hand crackling)

(somber music)

- Why aren't you supposed to be here?

- [Herman] So this is
where you've been hiding.

- Haven't been hiding.

That's why they're still looking.

- Oh, wise guy.

Well, listen, Irene knows that
you have been spying on her

for quite a while.

Seeing your skills of deception,

it surprises me that you
haven't found the fruit yet.

- That's why you're here.

- [Herman] Then I need the rabbit.

- We both know what you need to do.

Irene'll give up the fruit
if she hears the truth.

- What truth?

- That no god will free
you from your guilt

because Irene is the only
one who will forgive you.

Chose you for a reason.

Now, stop creating distractions

and play your part.

(water dripping)

- That's one fricking ugly fruit.

(door clattering)

(Irene gasps)

(loud knocking)

- Can we talk?

What's wrong?

- He was here when I came in.

- Listen--

- It doesn't matter now.

Let's try your plan with Choncho

so we can finally catch the killer.

(tense music)

Herman, we're losing time.

- (sighs) There's still
something bothering me, Irene.

Why have you kept Fabio
all these years with you?

(Irene sighs)

Are you trying to bring him back?

- I tried, but keeping his body intact

is the best I can do.

He deserves more than nothing.

- Oh yes, nothing before life,

nothing after death, right?

- (sighs) You never, never
understood contradictions.

Always taking the easy way out of things.

- You're wrong.

Coming here was the hardest thing

I have ever done in my life.

Even harder than the night Fabio died.

- But you weren't here that night.

- Oh, yes I was.

I came looking for you.

- What?

(loud knocking)

- Irene!

(doorknob rattling)

(dog barking)
(insects chirping)

Irene!

(dog barking)

- Go.

Go.

(dogs barking)

What are doing back here?

- My sister, where is she?

- Not here.

- You're lying.

Go get her or I'll do it myself.

She's coming with me.

- I already told you she's not here.

- Look, I don't care

what kinda wicked things
you're doing out here, Fabio,

but Irene is not gonna be a part of it.

- Wicked?

My science will put an
end to your blind faith.

- Gimme the keys.

(keys clanking)

- Go home, Herman.

Choncho!

(suspenseful music)

(keys clanking)

(elbow thudding)
(Fabio grunting)

(Fabio screaming)

(water splashing)

(somber music)

(Herman panting)

- Fabio turned you against our faith.

I was just trying to open your eyes again.

I'm sorry.

- You've been lying since
you walked through my door.

- I wanted to tell you
the truth in person.

But I couldn't find the courage.

- I hated this godly town for so long.

Time after time searching
for someone to punish.

- It wasn't my fault.

- An innocent man doesn't run!

- I didn't know what I was.

(sighs) Ever since my daughter died,

it seemed that God

was unfairly confirming my guilt.

- So you thought

that you'd feel better chasing ghosts.

- No, better than them
chasing me (chuckles).

Irene, you have to believe me.
(suspenseful music)

I am innocent.

- You've confessed
(panting) but some things

(tense music)

cannot be washed away!

(Herman grunting)

- We must be careful.
(tense music)

This could be old lady booby trapped.

- So neurotic.

Here, let me.

(fruit crackling)

- Easy.

- This is really (grunts) stuck.

(fruit thudding)

(suspenseful music)

Ow.

- [Pablo] What, what happened?

- I can't get off.

- What?

What do you mean you can't get off?

- Oh, my arms feel weak, Pablo.

(fruit crackling)

- What is this?

- [Beatrice] Oh, I can't feel my arms.

- It's gonna be okay.

- [Beatrice] I feel weak.

- Let me think.

We can, we can probably pull harder.

- Go get Irene before this kills me.

- Are you crazy?

We can't get--
- Pablo, will you go?

- Damn it, okay, okay.

Just hold on.

- (panting) Oh, I can't
believe he just said hold on.

(Pablo panting)

- What the hell happened here?

- She just panicked.

(Irene moaning)

(speaking in foreign language)

- Beatrice is in danger.

We found the fruit but it's hurting her.

- We've gone too far.

- Stop your whining, Abuelo.

Look, Aunt Irene, I
apologize about all this.

I know we weren't supposed to be in there,

it's just, please, can you
help me get my friend out?

- Are you asking for help?

While you're trying to steal from me?

- I came here to try and save Abuelo.

The fruit was the only way to do that.

- So that's why you came back.

After condemning Fabio's
research for years.

You damn hypocrite.
- The girl has nothing

to do with any of this.

- I didn't want
(somber music)

to drink the elixir.

(sighs) But I'm willing to see

if immortality is possible.

We all need closure.

- Yet you keep Fabio frozen
in your basement for years.

That's closure?

- Let's see how you respond

(panting) when your friend's body

starts to rot!
(dark music)

(Irene laughing)

- Irene, this isn't you.

- [Irene] Larter!

- Stop it!

- Larter!

(Irene grunting)

- [Herman] Stop it!

(suspenseful music)

- Abuelo, you said that
you saw the roots bleeding

when you found the fruit, right?

- Yes.

- The fruit was nearly dead?

- (speaking in foreign language)
But Fabio kept it alive.

- Let's go.

(Irene grunting)

(suspenseful music)

Bea, shh.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

(Pablo grunts)

(Pablo grunts)

- [Herman] What are you doing?

- (panting) Come on.

(heart beating)

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

- Pablo.

- You're okay, okay.

Come on.

You got it.

- You have to be more careful, muchacha.

(speaking in foreign language)
Your mother woulda killed me.

- We need to get outta here.

The question is how are we
gonna get the fruit to the lab?

- Cut the roots.

- What are you gonna do
now, pull a gun out on us?

- I'm not gonna harm you.

Only wanna ask you please
bury the fruit somewhere

where it cannot find blood.

(speaking in foreign language)

- You want to kill it?

- What you want is against the rules.

Been playing this game
since the beginning of time.

Never been beaten.

(tense music)

- You knew the fruit was here all along.

Yet, you still came to us.

Why?

(eerie music)

(slow rhythmic music)

- [Dee] Cannot kill
anything that is alive,

only collect what is dead.

(Beatrice laughing)

Could've chosen someone else for this,

but humans are quite unreliable.

Better to take a chance with
Irene's long-lost brother

who once knew that this fruit

would only bring pain to others.

- Well, maybe you choose us wrong.

- [Dee] Haven't made my offer yet.

You still have a one-way ticket to Heaven.

Waited for you to admit your guilt.

Now your sins can be forgiven.

- What sins?

- This can wait, Pablito.

- [Dee] The reason he
came all the way here,

his dirty conscience.

- Tell me, Abuelo--

- This can wait, Pablito.

- For what?

So you can come up with another lie?

- [Dee] He's responsible
for Fabio's death.

Yet he ran away after it happened.

(somber music)

But thanks to Herman, I
found out about the elixir

(wind whistling)

and have plotted to get
rid of it ever since.

(water splashing)

(tense orchestral music)

- You killed Fabio?

- Of course not, Pablito.
(wind whistling)

It was an accident.

- [Dee] Let's call it fate.

The truth is, the old
man is afraid of meeting

the gates of Hell.

The elixir sounds like a good way out,

but Heaven is more appealing.

Mmm, you want proof of the other side?

(wind whistling)

Here it is.

You can see your parents again

and Herman one day, rest assured.

But if you make this elixir
and drink it, then...

(wind whistling)

- Show me my parents.

- [Dee] Mmm, no can do.

Even I have rules to follow.

- So the rules only work in your favor.

(inhales deeply) Let's go.

- [Dee] Ah, but you need this.

(wind whistling)

- And for once, you're wrong.

- I don't need to see it twice
to recall a simple formula.

(Beatrice chuckles)

(Dee's neck crackling)

(eerie music)

(insects chirping)

(fan whirring)

You know I would've understood

if it was an accident.

- [Herman] Sorry, Pablito.

I had to tell Irene first.

- You could've told Irene
the second we got here.

- I know, I know, but we
also needed the fruit.

And now you have it.

- We have it.
(dog barking)

- Okay, we have it, we.
(footsteps crunching)

- Stop talking, guys.

- Nothing before life.

Keep walking.

Come on.

Act natural.

(tense rhythmic music)

- Well, he was right about something.

We found evidence of the afterlife here.

- One small clue, yes.

- Well, he was wrong about
something else though.

If there really is a Heaven,

then be sure to welcome
the best man I know.

Uh, bamboo extract.

- Uh, uh, shoot, I don't see any.

- That's the one thing we're missing.

- [Herman] We were so close.

- (gasps) I think my
flute, I think it has some.

- Perfect.

(flute thudding)

- [Beatrice] Pablo!

- What?

No one heard me.

- Well, how much did you need?

- This much.

(Beatrice sighs)

- Is that it?

- Yep, should be ready to go.

You first, Abuelo.
(liquid bubbling)

(suspenseful music)

(grass rustling)

(ominous music)
(wind whistling)

(bells ringing)
(people shouting)

- [Members] Invader.

- [Man] Invaders.

- [Woman] Invaders.

- [Man] Invaders.

- Invaders.
- Time to go.

(speaking in foreign language)

- Wait!
- Invaders!

- [Beatrice] We have to leave.

- Trust me, hold on.

All right, let's go (speaking
in foreign language).

- [Man] Invaders, invaders!

Invaders, invaders!
(members shouting)

Invaders, invaders.

- Invaders!
- Invaders, invaders!

- [Man] Whew, look.

(members grunting)

- [Man] Get away, keep away.

(men grunting)

- [Woman] Find it?

- [Man] Come on.

(man panting)
- Great.

Good work.

(somber music)

- Invaders!

Invaders!

Invaders!

- You okay?

- What did you whisper to Irene?

- The recipe.

(windshield wipers thudding)

(engine rumbling and rattling)

(sighs) Oh great.

(speaking in foreign language)

We're outta gas.

I'll be back in a second.

(birds chirping)

- Where's he going?

- [Herman] Go with him,
(speaking in foreign language)?

- Right.

(Herman sighs)

Hey.

- Hey.

- We should keep watching the road in case

someone comes by.

I mean, I know you have all
the time in the world, but...

- What?

- Nothing.

- Hey, I've been meaning to ask you,

do you have a napkin or
a bandaid I can borrow?

- Oh shoot, you're still bleeding.

- Like we all do.

- You changed the recipe.

(Beatrice chuckles)

(eerie music)

But wait, then you didn't need the bamboo.

- It had to look real for Abuelo.

Now he doesn't have to
worry about the afterlife

and he'll be at peace.

- So no more investigations, huh?

- And no more flute.

I'll get you a guitar.

They sound a little nice.

(Beatrice laughing)

- All righty, I'm gonna
go see if someone can stop

and help us out.

I want a home meal.

(gentle music)

- [Herman] He always comes back.

- I think Dee left him for us.

- Should we keep him?

- [Pablo] He'll be fine on his own.

- Anyway,

(sighs) I feel great.

- Really?

- Yes.

I think the elixir is working already.

- I think you're right.

Look.

(Pablo laughing)

(somber music)

(light rhythmic music)

(lively Spanish guitar music)

(gentle music)
