Original subtitles

You need to say goodbye.

Hey.

- Do you want any food? - No thank you.

Try and make you something.

You don't have to eat it.

Okay.

Okay.

You never saw yourselves.

- What are you doing? - Close your eyes.

Close your eyes. Close your eyes.

- Why? - Keep them closed.

Ah!

Hi!

Bella wants to say hello.

It's your big brother.

Say hello.

Laura, could you stop, please?

Okay.

- You know how you hate math. - Yeah.

And now you know how you've done

really, really well this term.

No way.

Thank you so much. - For you.

You're welcome.

Just a little thing from me hopefully you like it.

I thought you'd like it.

Thank you.

- It's beautiful. - Yeah.

Thank you.

That's okay. You're very welcome.

Hopefully you still find time to draw.

As his legal spouse,

all of James's assets will now fall to you, Laura.

This includes all his shares in his architectural firm.

This house, of course, which he built,

and several other properties.

Now you will also receive a significant payout

from his life insurance.

Okay.

I've been through his will and well,

he states he wants to be buried near his first wife, Suzanne.

What?

In the garden he had made

for her near the house.

Perhaps he would have changed that

had there been more time after your wedding.

But this was all so sudden.

Laura, the garden is private land,

separate from the house.

He had it built for Isaac

as a place he could always visit.

I know why he did it.

Yes, of course.

the more pressing issue at the moment

is Isaac's guardianship.

Now, Mary has been appointed by social services

to deal with Isaac's case.

Mary.

Are you aware that Isaac has no next of kin?

I know that James was an only child.

Yes, and so was Suzanne, sadly.

I would have to make a proper assessment.

But I've met with you both now, and I see no reason

why you couldn't provide him with a safe and nurturing home.

He will need someone and you own his home.

If you choose not to

then the state will decide.

What does that mean?

A foster home, possibly.

Or an institution if a home can't be found.

But a legal guardian needs to be appointed until he's 18.

Okay.

Hi, mum.

What did they say?

They want to know if I'll take Isaac.

What did you say?

I didn't.

But if I don't, then he'll go through social services.

That might be best, Laura.

For who?

I'm just being honest.

You have always struggled.

And...

this is a young boy's life.

He's going to need someone.

I think you should take the money

and think about coming back to your life here.

I'm sorry, Laura.

I know this was your chance for a new life.

Bella wants to say hello.

Say hello.

Hi, dad.

Um, yes, I have an actual phone.

But don't worry, it was for good cause, I promise.

Um, and I know I won't be seeing you

for a very long time,

so I just want to record the secret message

telling you that I love you.

And I cannot wait to see you soon.

And I'll see you when you get back.

Bye.

Daddy.

Laura.

What are you going to do?

I don't know.

He hates me. - He doesn't hate you.

Bullshit. You know that he does.

He's barely spoken to me since we got married.

Michelle sends her love.

So you're speaking then?

Not really.

She's devastated. She loved James.

What about you girls?

Did you tell them?

I haven't.

Divorce is more than enough right now.

How's he doing?

Hey, buddy.

Hey.

What have you got on the go there?

Simplus 4.

That's that... That sci-fi or is it shoot 'em up?

- I can't remember. - Both.

It's both, yeah, I think.

I think Laura used to play something about it.

Yeah.

The girls say hi, by the way.

Okay.

How are you feeling...

about your dad?

I'm okay.

Do you wanna...

Do you wanna talk about it?

No.

I'm okay.

No.

I can't imagine what you must be going through.

First your mom,

and now your dad.

They both meant so much to me, you know, they were like family.

You too.

You're like family.

And whatever you need, I'm here. Okay?

Give us some time.

Let him process it.

I'll swing by in a couple of days

and see how you're doing.

I'll see you soon.

Isaac doesn't realize you're everything to him right now.

Isaac, can you stop playing that for a second?

Yeah.

I'm so sorry about what happened to your father.

It must be so difficult at your age to lose both your parents.

He's asked to be buried here next to your mother

so that you can have a place to visit.

And I'm going to do what he asked.

What happened to him?

There was a machine that was helping him to breathe,

but he was dead.

The doctors said that it should be switched off.

- Why? - Because he was dead.

How do you know he was?

Because they told me.

How did they know?

Because they saw him.

And they saw what happened to him.

I wish that he was still here, just like you do.

I wish that something else had happened to him, I really do.

We both do. But he's gone.

I'm gonna try and make your tea.

Isaac, come inside.

Isaac! Isaac, come inside now.

Fire brigade, please.

It's a deep forest. We can't search it all.

There's no fire we can find.

It happens again. Just let us know.

Ah!

Ah!

Go-go-go-go-go.

Ah!

Okay.

You go. You go left. I'll go right.

Ah!

What is it?

He's pleading.

Friendly fire! Friendly fire!

Argh!

You're going down, buddy?

Oh! - No, okay!

I got it!

Oh. Again...

Laura.

...towards God the light, forevermore.

His suffering ended.

With peace be here.

For us to visit...

...we keep him near.

He will return to be with you.

His new body formed in Earth anew.

Laura!

Laura!

Bella.

Isaac.

Isaac, get back.

Bella!

Bella!

Bella! Bella, come back!

Bella!

Bella!

Bella!

Bella, Bella.

Bella, Bella.

What was it? What was it, Bella?

Is it hers?

Okay. I'm just down the hall. If you need me.

I'll get someone to repair it first thing.

Night.

Oh.

I'm a bit scared.

Okay.

Do you want to come and sleep in here?

Okay.

Turn your light off when you're ready.

Isaac.

I don't know what it was. I couldn't really tell.

It could have been an animal scared from the fire.

Maybe.

I was so scared.

I just wish that James had been here.

The house is too much.

Why don't you come to stand with me?

No.

The girls would love to see Isaac.

No.

Well, how about I stay for dinner?

I can cook. - Thank you.

Oh, hey.

Hey.

I was just looking for something.

Sure.

Laura told me about what happened.

Yeah, it bit Bella.

What did you think it was?

I don't know.

What did it look like?

Skinny.

Dark.

Okay.

Isaac, eat some of your food.

I'm not hungry.

You'll make yourself sick.

I don't want it.

Sure? It's damn tasty.

I don't feel like it.

I...

I...

I...

I...

Isaa...

Isaac.

Isaac.

Isaac.

Isaac.

Isaac.

Isaac, Isaac.

Isaac.

Dad?

Where have you been?

Come.

Come to the forest.

Don't go.

Isaac.

What are you looking at?

Nothing.

Hey. You okay?

I just needed to talk to someone.

Sure.

I knew it wasn't a dream.

You've come back.

No! Stop it!

Oh, shit! I gotta go.

Bella! Wait, no!

Stop it! - Get off her!

Get off her!

- Stop it! - Isaac, what are you doing?

It was dad!

He's back. He's not dead!

Bella, stop it!

He's back, I'm tell you! He's back!

Dad! - No!

Isaac! Isaac, come back!

How are you feeling?

Hungry.

Well, this won't take very long.

And then I'm sure Laura can make you something.

She can't cook.

Anyone can make a sandwich.

Even Laura.

Doubt it.

Laura said you saw your father again.

I'm not crazy.

I never said you were.

I just want to know what you saw.

Why? So you can prove that I am.

No one thinks you're crazy, Isaac.

Least of all me. I believe you.

Else why would you say it?

He came to my room.

He spoke to me.

He said he was in the forest.

Then I saw him again clear as day in the garden...

hiding in trees.

What did he say?

That I was special.

That everyone mustn't know he's here.

Anything else?

That this was an accident.

He didn't mean to be here.

What do you think that means?

- Don't worry. - James was in a car accident.

That's not what he meant.

What do you think he meant?

I don't know.

But... he looks different.

What do you mean?

His body is different.

I understand you're quite the artist.

Do you think you could draw him for me?

And where is he now?

In the forest.

Waiting for me.

What do you think?

Did he ever do anything like this after his mother died?

James never said anything.

Then this must just be his way of processing bereavement.

It's pretty fucking crazy.

He's an imaginative boy.

Can we send him somewhere?

Ideally, our goal would be to not send him anywhere.

He needs love, not a psych ward.

Laura, he's a well-educated boy

with no history of mental illness

who suddenly lost his father.

This is all very fresh for him.

My advice would be to not shut him down on this.

Better for him to let it all out in the open

so that we can address his needs.

If you want to go and look tomorrow,

we can go.

See what we can find.

Isaac!

Isaac, stop!

Isaac, stop! Come back!

Isaac, stop!

Isaac, come away from there!

You don't know what it is.

Isaac! Come away from it!

Come away! Stop! You don't know what's in there.

Isaac.

He built this, look!

He built this for me.

Can't you see?

I told you.

- Isaac. - He's here.

- Isaac, come here now. - Let me go!

- Come here. We're leaving. - Let me go!

Let me go!

Dad.

Let me go. Let me go!

Let me go!

Come on. We're going!

Let me go!

Come on, we're leaving!

Hey.

Can you come over?

Sure. Why?

Isaac went crazy in the woods?

What do you mean, "crazy"?

Laura?

I don't know, he just did.

I need you to bring me something.

What do you need?

I'll send you the link.

Can you just get it and come here, please?

Okay.

I'll send you it now. Bye.

Laura. You make it...

Laura?

Laura.

Laura!

Laura.

Laura.

What is it?

I don't know.

Some herbal stuff I found.

Quite the cellar, huh?

Sorry.

I get it. Just...

Just be careful.

You sound like my therapist.

Is that a compliment?

They stopped me from going back to rehab.

I heard.

Friends talk.

What did he say?

They were nothing like Suzanne.

Life in that woman's shadow.

But that he was crazy about you.

If only his son was too.

It will come.

- I can't do it. - You can.

We're not good for each other.

Look, you wouldn't have to work

or worry about bills or any of that shit.

Just...

Just bring him into manhood.

This is what a boy of his size has done to me.

He's only going to get bigger.

And I'm left alone in this house with him.

- I'll be around. - Really?

You have two children of your own and a divorce.

It's a disaster waiting to happen.

Then I'll take him.

I've raised two.

I'll raise him for James.

Don't say that.

Look, none of this is your fault.

Why did your marriage end?

Because I had an affair.

You can be married and still lonely.

I just want to be honest with you.

I think I'm going to go to bed.

I'll clean up.

No, don't worry about it.

It's fine.

Thanks for this.

Don't use it for long.

Night.

Night.

Bella?

Bella!

Oh, fuck.

It's light enough now.

I'll go and find her.

She's never done this before.

Don't worry. She'll get hungry.

She'll be back soon.

Okay.

Bella!

Come on, girl.

Bella.

Come on, girl.

Bella!

Come on, girl.

Laura!

Laura, Laura. Come quickly, Laura!

Oh, God, Bella.

Laura!

Bella?

Bella!

Bella?!

Bella!

Oh, my God, Bella!

Oh, my God, Bella.

Oh, Bella, Bella.

Bella.

Oh, Bella.

It's okay, it's okay.

It's okay, okay. It's okay.

I haven't seen lacerations like this before.

I'm not sure it was another animal that did this.

Well, what do you think it was?

I don't know.

A knife.

Maybe.

Is there anyone that you could think of

that could have done this?

There's nobody else around here?

I'm sorry. I don't mean to alarm you.

Oh, my God.

Oh, God.

Bella.

Bella.

Bella!

Dad!

I'm here. Now, please.

You need to let them know you're here.

Be quiet, Isaac

Why?

She's watching.

What do you mean?

Don't trust her.

Don't trust Robert.

They will lie to you.

They're not telling you the truth.

I built you your home.

Come inside.

Don't be scared.

Please, I love you.

Please come back.

You need to let them know you're here.

They need to see.

They will never accept what I am.

Making you more special.

I can see this.

I'll make them. I'll make my accept you.

If the don't,

I'll make them go. I don't care about them.

I only care about you.

Laura?

I think there's something in his room.

- What? - Isaac.

Here. He's here.

He's here. Look. Dad's here.

He was here.

He was speaking to me.

Bella's with him.

She was there too.

There's nothing there, Isaac.

Hey! Calm down, Isaac.

- Hey, Calm down. - No, I saw him.

He says he saw Bella and his father

in the air vent asking for help.

He thinks if you leave, he'll come back.

I saw a face. He's driving me fucking insane.

This is really inappropriate, Laura.

How else am I supposed to know what he's doing?

You're obviously both struggling with the situation.

Struggling.

My dog was stabbed to death

and he's saying she's in the air vent.

And I'll request a child psychiatrist pay a visit.

There's a knife missing. She was killed with a knife.

Or an animal. We don't know.

Then where is it?! It's gone!

James's grave was destroyed.

All the fucking plants have been killed.

There's something wrong. I know that there is.

- Laura. - There's something wrong.

You've obviously been drinking.

I just need a fucking straight answers!

You need to slow down and take a moment.

- Laura, be careful. - I know what I saw!

I can't here in this fucking house!

I can't deal with this fucking house!

Fuck!

What's wrong with her.

It's okay, Isaac.

Come on, Isaac.

Let's get you to your bedroom.

Laura.

Things are really difficult at the moment, aren't they?

Come on, let's go get your Teddy.

Hey.

Hey!

Fuck!

Fuck you!

Fuck!

Fuck!

Hey.

Come here.

It's okay. It's okay.

Wait.

Come on. Please, just...

- Oh! - Try and calm down.

Calm down. Please.

You're gonna be alright.

Hey, it's gonna be okay.

Just hang in there.

Dad!

They're lying to me.

They're liars!

They all lie to me.

Bring me Robert, Isaac.

I'll bring them here.

I'll bring them to you so you can show them!

I will, but you must come inside.

Come inside, Isaac.

I built this home for you.

I know you love me.

I want you to see the truth.

Only you will understand.

Morning.

Morning.

There's coffee if you want some.

I don't think I do.

He suggested we go for a little walk later in the woods.

I thought it'd be a good idea.

Thank you.

I'm done eating.

What happened?

You don't remember?

Mary was here.

I don't...

She left.

You went to sleep. That was pretty much it.

I'm going to go.

- Laura. - I can't do this.

- Give it time. - I never wanted children.

I wanted James.

Will you take him?

And can you tell him when you go for a walk with him later?

Tell him I'm sorry.

That I tried.

Isaac. We should head back.

It's going to be getting dark soon.

Okay. It's this way.

Right, Well, this is a bit of a disaster, isn't it?

I know where I am. Don't worry.

Really?

You must have a compass for a brain.

All I can see his bark.

I wanted to show you something.

Look, we really need to get back, Isaac.

What's that?

Dad built it.

Whew. Wow.

This is incredible.

When did he even build this?

I'm not sure, but it's his.

What's inside?

Don't know. I've never been in it.

I'm too scared.

Well, look. Come on, let's go in together.

I'll go with you.

No. You go.

Your dad built this.

He probably created you something incredible inside.

Can we just wait here?

Sure. I sit for a bit.

Isaac, how would you feel about

coming to live with me for a bit?

I don't want to live with you.

The girls will be there.

You can hang out for fun. Go to the beach.

I don't want to.

Well, what do you want?

For you to see him.

Isaac, your father's dead.

It's not. He's alive.

I know this is hard for you to accept.

I hate you!

- I hate you! - What have I done?

I want you to go and never come back.

Isaac, I'm here for you. Your father would want me

to stick around and help.

You don't know what he wants.

None of you do.

Only I do because I'm special.

Isaac, your father is dead.

- Let go! - Come on.

- Stop! - Come on, let's go home.

Isaac. Come on, let's go home.

No!

Isaac, wait.

There's something in there.

Ah!

Isaac!

Run, Isaac, run!

Isaac!

Run!

- Oh. Excuse me. Who are you? - What's happened to it?

Can we get a nurse in here, please?

- It's my friend. - I'm sorry.

Only next of kin can be.

I was the one that rang the ambulance.

I, um, my stepson said that he had fallen.

I followed him here. - I know. I'm sorry.

But can you please wait outside, please?

What's happened? Please get out, now. Come on.

What happened?

He slipped and hit his head.

They think that he was running,

panicking through branches in the dark.

- We were playing. - That he fell and hit his head

so hard that he cracked his skull.

It was an accident.

I think you're lying to me.

- I'm not. - I think you are.

You're the liar.

Why?

I saw you kissing him.

Robert?

I saw you do it.

I'm so sorry.

Just go.

Isaac, did you destroy your father's grave?

Yes.

Why?

Because I was angry.

Did you take the knife?

- What knife? - The one that was in my drawer.

- No. - Tell me, did you kill Bella?

- No. - Did you attack Robert?

No.

He was scared.

Of dad.

I can't stay here anymore, Isaac.

Good.

I'll go tomorrow.

And I won't come back.

This place will be yours.

But they'll come for you now.

They'll put you into care.

That's what I was trying to protect you from.

But you need help.

I'm sorry.

Isaac...

Aah!

Aah!

Laura!

Laura!

Laura, help! Please!

I...

Isaa...

Isaac...

Isaac...

Isaac.

Isaac.

Isaac.

I am like you.

Come with me, Isaac.

We'll be a family.

Aah!

Isaac...

Aah!

Laura.

Laura?

Laura!

Laura!

Laura!

Laura!!

Aah!

Mom?

Yeah.

Can I come in?

Sure.

Everything okay?
