All language subtitles for Dead Places - 01x06 - Theres Something Inside the Tree.ION10.English.C.edit.Addic7ed.com

Trees are amongst
the oldest life forms on earth.

They have the power to both
give life and take it away.

But what else
might they be capable of?

How far do those roots reach?

And what other secrets do they hold?

Thanks.

Don’t you think
it's enough work for today?

Sorry, I’m almost done, babe.
Just a few more minutes, please.

Nicole... you’re obsessing.

We’re going to be fine.

You always say that.

Yeah.

But these renovations
are going to cost us a fortune.

Babe, what if...what if we’re making
a mistake here?

No, we’re not. Trust me.

- It’s going to work out.
- Hmm...

And how would you know?

Because... it was your idea.

Well, I mean...
I don’t always have the best ideas.

I did marry you.

OMG. Like, you’re so funny.

- Owen!
- Daniel?

What’s going on?

There’s something wrong
with one of the trees.

One of the trees?
What are you talking about?

There’s a light coming
from one of the trees! The baobab.

Okay, Daniel. It’s late.

Have you been smoking?

You can ask Thabo. Thabo!

Okay. All right. Cool.

Let’s go out there
and take a look.

No! I’m not going.

And why not?

Because I know what it is.

It’s witchcraft.

What is that?

I don’t... I don’t know.

Just stay here and lock the doors.

No, Owen.

Baby, can’t we... can’t we
maybe call someone?

Like who?

It’s just a light.

I’ll be back in a minute.

Be careful.

Lock the doors.

What the hell?

Owen?

Owen!

Owen!

Owen?

Owen?

Owen!

Owen!

Oh no, oh my god, oh my god!

Why didn’t you stop me?

There is death in that tunnel.

It’s okay.
I’m not really a teacher.

But it’s not what they think.

No, Rose.

Nothing’s going to happen.
There’s no such thing as monsters.

Something hunts in the darkness.

Help me!

Fuck!

Hi, mom.

Yeah. It’s me.

Ask me anything you want to.

- Anything?
- Uh-huh.

Thank you.

No, thank you.

I’m sorry I haven’t come
to see you sooner.

Have you been to visit
your father?

You need to see him.

You know what it’s like
between him and me.

He has changed.
He’s not the same man.

- How have you been?
- I’m doing fine.

We thank God.

I’m working on a new book.

- That’s good.
- And you?

I’m fine.

You haven’t used the money
I sent you.

Why not?

I don’t need it.
I pass it on to those who do.

Why have you been away
for so long?

Why do you find it so difficult
to be around me?

You know why.

William.

I don’t blame you. Not for a second.

I know, but it was still my fault.

If that’s what you believe
then we all are to blame.

Your father, for putting
those stories in your head.

And me,
not being there at that time.

And your grandmother’s death?

Where does this stop?

I don’t want to argue with you.

That’s not why I came here.

There’s something
I need to ask you.

What?

I need to know.

Is there anything else
that happened in those tunnels?

Is there something
you’re not telling me?

That you’ve kept from me?
Anything?

No, of course not.
Where is this coming from?

I’ve been having dreams. Memories.

I’m not sure.

But the pieces don’t fit
with what I was told.

If there’s anything
that you’re not telling me,

I need to know. Please.

I won’t lie to you, William.

Rose drowned and you survived.
That’s the truth.

Then why didn’t they find her body?

It’s good to see you, Ma.

What do you mean, it was glowing?

I don’t know.

She just said there was a light
coming from it.

She sure it wasn’t a Christmas tree?

When people live out in the bush
long enough,

they start to lose their shit.
I’m just saying.

How long was he in a coma?

Almost three months.

Come on, guys.
This isn’t Lord of the Rings, okay?

Trees don’t attack people.
People attack trees!

Do you know what happens
when an apple tree

becomes infested with caterpillars?

No, but I bet
you’re going to tell me.

It releases a chemical.

The chemical attracts birds,
and the birds eat the caterpillars.

So trees are not
as helpless as you think.

That is fascinating!

Come on, guys. Why can’t...why can't we
ever just do something... normal?

Tell you what, Joe. Next time I write
a book, we’ll call it "Normal Places."

And we’ll investigate coffee shops,

internet cafés, knitting circles,

libraries even. How about that?

Sounds great. Why don’t we call Ben
and get him on that shit?

How long was he at the tree for?

Not long. Maybe a minute.

And the light. What was it like?

Just an intense glow.

But it disappeared
the moment Owen collapsed.

What do the doctors think?

That he, just slipped, hit his head.

You were in the car
the whole time, right?

I mean it was dark.
Maybe he was attacked?

I was watching him the whole time.
He was alone.

And the light,
has it been back since?

No. But, I think I know why.

I took these... on that night.

It’s a blood moon.

Only happens every couple of months.

It’s too much of a coincidence.
There has to be a link.

- Okay.
- Yeah.

That’s a good start.

Do you have any idea
when the next one’s going to happen?

That’s why I was desperate for you
to come here. It’s tonight.

Of course it is.

Okay, um, I’ll give you guys
a moment to think about it.

How was I supposed to know?
She didn’t tell me.

You do know
how ridiculous this is, right?

Yeah, for once I agree, Joe.

So?

Well, we’re here now.

- Maybe we should go and check it out--
- Yeah!

That’s cool. Whatever.

Joe...

There’s nothing they can do for him,
so... I wanted him home.

Doesn’t he have to be monitored?

He’s not in a coma.
At least not according to them.

He’s been diagnosed
with Kleine-Levin Syndrome.

It’s a type of sleep disorder.

He can’t wake up.

Sleeping Beauty Sickness.

Exactly.

Like the case you had in Nigeria,
with that woman.

That was different.
She was possessed.

Maybe Owen is too?

Do you know old that tree is?
It predates Christianity.

What if that light
is like a...a kind of energy?

Or a...a type of ancient spirit
that’s now infected Owen?

I doubt it’s anything like that.

Why not?

Because...
it would be unprecedented.

That doesn’t mean it isn’t true.

She’s got you there, chief.

Maybe.

Okay, so let me understand this.

The tree’s older than Jesus?
And it has something living inside it?

Like what? Lucifer?

Joe, why would Lucifer be living
in a tree? Why don’t you just calm down?

What happened in Nigeria?
What was she talking about?

A woman came to me claiming
that her sister had been possessed.

She’d been asleep for days.
Nothing we tried really helped.

Then we performed an exorcism,
she woke up.

- So she survived?
- Briefly. Yeah.

She died two days later.

- How long was she asleep for?
- Eight days.

Owen’s been under for like,
three months.

That doesn’t mean
that this is the same thing.

Look, let’s go take a look at the tree,
see what we can find.

You know what Ben told me
when he offered me this job?

He told me that all I had to do,
was drive you around

and make sure that nobody stabs you
in the face, present company included.

He didn’t mention anything
about witches, voodoo dolls,

or trees that suck the life
out of you.

At the risk of sounding
like a broken record,

I didn’t sign up for this shit.

- Joe.
- What?

I’m sorry. You’re right.

Huh?

Yeah. You should talk to Ben
about this.

All right, thank you.
That’s mighty big of you.

Also don’t forget
to send a note through to HR.

You know what?

You are not that funny!

Where’re you going?

- To find a chainsaw.
- Chopping down the tree won’t help.

I never said
it was for the tree... Will.

Dick!

Holy shit.

Now that’s a tree.

Wow.

You know, I’ve only ever seen these
in pictures.

Definitely doesn’t do them justice.

My parents used to bring me here
when I was a girl.

I loved this tree.

Yeah?

Now I just want to burn it
to the ground.

That’s where the light
came out from.

Are there any witch doctors
in the area?

You think that’s got something
to do with it?

Not necessarily.

Just seems like the right place
for a ritual.

And that?

Erm... I’ve never seen that before.

Why would somebody carve a chicken
into a tree?

Yeah, that’s weird.

Pretty sure it’s not a chicken.

- Looks like the Impundulu.
- Say what now?

Impundulu. The lightning bird.

According to folklore,
it has the ability to-

generate thunderstorms
and lightning.

Thunderstorms?

Well that’s not, so bad.

Also, it likes to feed on humans.

Like a vampire.

Of course it does.

So... what’s Dracula Chicken
doing in our tree?

Oh, I know.
Perhaps he’s visiting his friend.

The Devil.

Oh, Joe.

Don’t worry about him.

So you got a plan yet, chief?

No, Joe. Not yet.

You know the sun’s going down?
Time isn’t exactly on our side.

I’m aware. Thank you.

You know I have a plan.

Let me guess.
You think we should just leave?

Well, that's not a plan anymore,
it’s just common sense. Isn’t it?

Joe, aren’t you just
a little bit curious?

I know what it’s about.

Some bad shit
that we shouldn’t be screwing with.

Hey, guys.

So, um, it’s not
a gourmet meal, but I made food.

Thank you, Nicole.

I’ll have something to eat later.
Thank you.

Sure.

You know what?
You can do whatever you want to do,

but I’ll be damned if I’m going to die
out here on an empty stomach.

I’ve been meaning to ask.

Are you okay?

What do you mean?

I don’t know.

You’ve been a little quiet lately.

You haven’t been
your normal bright self.

I’m fine.

I’ve been having nightmares
about the kidnapping.

That hasn’t happened in a long time.

- Sorry that’s probably my fault.
- No, it isn’t.

It’s probably a good thing.
I think you were right.

I haven’t faced up to things
and it’s... it's been causing problems.

Kelly.

When we spoke on the other day,

I might’ve just been projecting
my own issues onto you.

Give me your hand.

Were you projecting this?

Yeah.

Truth is, I’m a mess.

We are all a bit of a mess.

If you take a quick glance
to your right

you’ll see Joe eating.
Now that is a mess.

Is it good?

Hmm. Hmm.

- Would you like another drink?
- Mmm-mm.

I’m straight.

How long have you been
working with Will?

Couple of months.

What’s he like?

Annoying. Pain in the ass.
Arrogant. Weird.

Then again,

I suppose you have to be some kind
of weirdo to do this job. Right?

And do you believe
in the paranormal?

Never used to.

But after this shit that I’ve seen,
I don’t exactly have a choice anymore.

Do you think he’ll be able to help?

I don’t know.

But I’ve yet to see him fail. So...

Um,

thanks for the chow.

Sure.

Look, don’t tell him I told you this,

but underneath all that bullshit...

he’s a good guy.
He’ll do his best for you.

Of course he’s never come up against
a haunted tree before, so...

no promises.

I know.

Yeah.

Hey.

So we’re about to head out.

I don’t know
what’s going to happen, but...

we’re going to do everything we can,
to help you.

And if there’s anything
that you can do on your side,

now’s the time. Okay?

Love you.

Maybe, I was wrong about this?

Maybe the moon
has got nothing to do with it?

Just give it some time.

It...

When did you say the moon sets?

About four hours.

Okay.

Guys, you stay here.

I’m going to take a look. Joe...

You don’t have to convince me,
guv'nor. I’m good right here.

Good.

Will...

Don’t die.

Got you.

- Good luck.
- Thank you.

What the f--

You’ve got to be shitting me.

Owen?

Owen!

Okay, careful with his head.
Will? Will? Hey!

Open your eyes.

Will! Stop being an asshole!

Open your eyes. Wake up.

Fuck!

Shit. What do we do?

I don’t know. He’s the expert!

You know, I told you guys.
We should’ve left.

I told you!
But no one listens to me, do they?

Will. Will. Shit!

Owen?

Owen?

Maybe we should just take him
to the hospital?

The hospital can’t help him.

Okay.

I think we should wait.

For what?

I don’t know.

But look, we obviously don’t know
what’s going on here, but maybe he does?

He doesn’t look like he understands
much of anything right now.

Joe!

Let’s just...let's just wait
until the moon sets.

Why?

I...I have a feeling, okay?

You have a feeling?

Whatever!

Owen?

Owen!

Owen, wake up. Can you hear me?

Wake up.

- Please, wake up!
- Who are you?

Who I am...

Who I am doesn’t matter.
I’m here to help.

What did this?

It’s like a...

It’s like a... vulture.

- Like a vulture?
- But it’s not a bird.

Like a vulture, but not a bird?

It’s a demon.

Okay. It’s a demon.

Then let’s get out of here
before the demon gets back. Yeah?

Don’t... move.

Fuck.

Okay. Okay.

Come on.

Let’s go. Let’s go.

Come on.

Move! Come on!

Come on.

- Come on!
- I’m trying.

Try harder! Come on. Come on!

There’s the tree.

Come on!

Owen. Owen.

Owen, get up.

Owen, Owen, come on!

Can't stand.

If the moon sets we’re stuck here.

Let’s go!

Guys, something’s happening.

He’s struggling to breath, guys!

- Will. Will.
- Will!

Will!

- Will.
- Will.

Will!

Oh, my god,
he’s stopped breathing. Will!

Look out! Look out!

One. Two. Three.

Four. Five. Six. Seven.

Twenty-seven. Twenty-eight.
Twenty-nine. Thirty.

All right, breathe. Breathe!

Wake up. Wake up.

Twenty-nine.
Thirty. Breathe. Breathe.

Please wake up. Please wake up.

- Oh, he’s breathing. Okay.
- He's breathing.

Will. Will. Wake up!

Wake up! Wake up!

Shit.

Are we still in hell? Get up!
Get up! Come on!

Will!

Wake up, Will! Please, just--

- Take it easy.
- Will! Wake up!

Oh my god! Will!

Oh my god. Thank god.

- Thank god.
- What happened?

- You were unconscious.
- Okay.

- You stopped breathing.
- Okay.

Are you okay?

- I’m fine.
- Yeah?

- -Thanks, chief.

Don’t thank me.

She saved your life.

Thank you. I found Owen.

- What do you mean?
- What?

We were in this place.

It was...
We need to go to the house.

- We need to go to the house.
- Okay. Okay. On three.

- Go to the house.
- One, two, three.

Owen! Owen!

Oh, baby.

Hey. Hi. Are you okay?

Thank you.

Okay, so
you know why that’s ironic? Right?

It’s called
Sleeping Beauty Syndrome

and yet it was her kiss
that woke you up.

It wasn’t a kiss. It was CPR.

There is a slight difference.

Yeah.
Whatever, Sleeping Beauty.

Point is,
she brought you back to life.

I hired her, thus I saved your life.
You’re fucking welcome.

You’re an idiot.
You know that, right?

I got to go.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait!
You still haven’t told me.

Told you what?

About that...place that you were in.
What...what the hell was it?

I don’t know.
And I’m not sure I want to.

Some things are too much,
even for me.

And then what about the magic tree?
You...you can’t just leave it.

We’ve got some time
to figure it out.

A few more weeks at least.

Yeah, okay.
My vote is you cut it down.

And fill the hole with bibles.

You don’t want that, vulture,
bird thing coming after you.

Not your worst idea, Ben.

All right, mate.
I’ll speak to you soon.

Will?

Yeah. Don’t do that in public.

I’ll be with you in a second.

Father.

William.

Hello Dad.
