Shit.

Wait. Get help!

Get help!

-Get help! -Guards!

Guards!

Get him to the infirmary, now!

-I'm fine. -I got you.

-I'm... I'm fine. -Just breathe.

I'm fine. I'm fine.

Well?

We got it.

Excuse me, sir. What the hell just happened?

All right.

All right, Major.

Looks like it's time to give you some answers.

It's okay.

Your parents will be back soon.

I'll be right outside in case there are any more... problems.

I shouldn't be here. Everyone thinks I did this.

It's okay. I told them you didn't.

What'd you say?

That my glasses broke and they cut my eye

and you were only trying to help me when everyone showed up.

They'd probably send me to Juniper Hill

if I told them what I really saw.

I'm so sorry, Lil.

I should have believed you.

You're my best friend...

and I let you down.

Why is this happening?

We're still trying to figure that out.

Is it gonna happen again?

I don't know.

But if it does...

you won't be alone.

I missed you.

I really missed you too.

Is Marge okay? It looked pretty bad.

Her eye's a little messed up, but she'll be okay.

Look, if she wants to help,

then she can tell Bowers what really happened.

Ronnie, we've tried that already.

Why would they believe her?

Besides, the police probably think I attacked her,

that she's covering for me.

Everyone thinks that.

No, Lilly, that's not what I meant.

Listen, I mean, not us,

but like at school, the post office, my barber.

This is a private club, announce yourself.

Matty?

Help... me.

The Indians call them "pillars."

Thirteen objects carved from the same material

that that thing apparently fell to Earth on.

"Fell to Earth"?

They were buried hundreds of years ago deep underground

by the Sqoteawapskot tribe in order to create a sort of...

cage around the creature's territory.

One that runs more or less along the borders of modern-day Derry.

You're telling me that Derry's a prison

and we're looking for the bars?

Exactly right, Major.

That kid...

is a member of a secret order dedicated to keeping that thing locked up

and those pillars hidden.

A job that he and his pals have succeeded at for nearly 400 years.

Until now.

Hallorann flipped through that boy's mind like it was the morning paper.

Now we know exactly where they are

and how to get to them.

To do what, sir?

To reduce the size of its cage.

To contain it.

You mean to capture it.

29 Neibolt Street.

It's an abandoned home atop a tunnel system

that leads directly to the 13 pillars.

Tomorrow morning, you and Colonel Fuller will lead a small team to secure them.

Once in hand,

you'll tighten the perimeter enough to control it.

Imagine if we had dropped something like this

on the Pusan Perimeter in '51.

Let it do the job we lost so many GIs to.

How many mothers we could have spared from heartbreak.

It's time to bring this Cold War to an end, Major.

What's the problem, son?

You knew

that Derry was this thing's hunting ground,

and you let me move my family here.

The plan was for you to stay on base.

You chose otherwise.

Maybe now you move them here until this is all done with.

There's no maybe about it.

Excuse me, sir.

Matty, where have you been?

It's okay.

-You don't have to-- -In the sewers...

below Derry.

That's where it lives.

The clown.

Clown?

It kept some of us alive...

like...

like it needed...

Fear.

Yeah.

How did you get away?

It feeds at night...

and sleeps in the day.

And I just waited...

and I ran.

What about Teddy and Phil and Susie?

Did you see them?

Teddy was dead when it dragged him in.

His skull was ripped open and it...

It... It what?

Ate his brains right in front of me.

I think I'm gonna be sick.

And Susie, one of her arms was gone.

It just left her there.

All night, bleeding out...

and crying.

Until she stopped.

But Phil...

he's still down there.

He's alive?

He can't talk or move, but...

he's alive, somehow.

We have to go to the police.

No. No police.

I have to get my dad out.

And you can tell them that he didn't take you.

And Phil. Matty, we have to help him.

No cops.

-Matty, please. -No.

They'd send me back, back to my dad.

I ran away once, I will do it again.

I'd sooner go back to the sewers than there.

Obviously, the loss of even one life

is one life too many.

That said, the cycle has been a lot milder than '35 and '08.

Twenty-five disappearances, seven confirmed deaths,

mostly children, the oldest 16...

and the youngest 5.

One encouraging sign

is obviously we know the creature sheds.

Its discharge, you might call it,

has tainted Derry's groundwater since the town's founding.

Just get on with it, John.

I'm sorry.

Should we not be educating our prospective keeper?

Leo.

Go on, John.

Well, lately our scouts have noted

that the residents have been acting more aggressively.

The Augury!

Exactly.

And what is that, dear?

One last big, bloody event that marks the end of a cycle,

after which,

we get another 27 years or so of peace and quiet.

Miss Rose.

You're late. Where's Taniel?

I couldn't stop him.

Sir, please let me speak to him.

All aboard the Shawshank Express.

Well, your savior better work fast, Grogan.

Last fish we sent in there didn't survive the week.

Maybe if you're lucky, you'll survive two.

Burn in hell, you son of a bitch!

Get off of me!

You're a dead man.

You're a dead man, Grogan, you hear me?

You're gonna fry for what you did to my kids,

you piece of shit!

Get off of me!

I didn't do it!

Sit down.

Yeah, no, I'm fine.

I'm just a little shaken up is all.

He's on his way there now.

I just wanted to make sure we got the paperwork in

so we could... we could get him with his family

as quickly as possible until we get a defense.

All right, so you'll let me know. Okay.

All right, thanks so much.

All right, bye-bye.

Is Will here? Where's Will?

In his room. What's wrong?

I gotta tell you something.

Okay? And as crazy as it's going to sound,

I really need you to just believe me.

The National Guard was standing by

in Leflore County, Mississippi yesterday

during a demonstration for Negro voting rights, during which...

General? There's somebody here to see you.

-Not now. -With respect, sir,

I think you're gonna want--

Where is my nephew, Francis?

Rose.

He's safe.

Once our operation is complete, he'll be released.

-You have my word. -Your word?

"Water pipelines"?

I told you that my memories of Derry came back

when I first got here.

That wasn't entirely true.

No shit.

Five years ago,

I was administered a drug by the Department of Defense

as part of a security protocol, and it all came rushing back.

Every detail of that summer we shared...

for the first time in 45 years.

What was that thing?

Why can't it leave the woods?

Can you keep a secret?

I remember you saved my life

from something that shouldn't exist.

After I processed everything that had happened

and everything you told me about your ancestors

and their sacred responsibility,

I realized I was sitting on the answer to a question

that has plagued me my entire life.

How to keep this country safe?

You think you can put a leash on this thing?

It can't be controlled, Francis.

We'll see.

You wouldn't be doing any of this

if you really remembered everything.

What it's like to look it right in the eye.

Feel its breath on your neck.

You would pack up this entire operation and run.

We know how to find the pillars.

Taniel told us everything.

He would never do that.

Neibolt House, Rose.

The tunnels below Neibolt.

In that case...

you'll need my help.

That's out of the question, Rose.

Francis.

At the very least, let me prepare Taniel.

Your lives depend on it.

Taniel.

-Aunt Rose! -Are you okay?

I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to get caught.

I know you didn't.

You're hurt. What did you...

They did something to me.

Went into my mind.

Into my head, into my memories. I don't know how, but--

Hey, hey, hey.

English!

I told them...

that you'll have a better chance of helping them find

what they're looking for...

with this.

They've inspected it.

They know it poses no threat.

And they understand that you are the only one

who knows how to use it.

Yes, Auntie.

I understand.

I'll take that.

I'll take that.

You won't need it till the morning.

Time's up.

Let's go.

Do what they say.

Keep it close and you'll be safe, okay?

Identification.

The base is far enough outside of town.

You all should be safe with me

-till the assignment's done. -But, Dad,

what about my friends? They need me.

You'll see your friends when this is all over.

You're free to go.

Trust me now. I'm taking care of it.

Lilly?

You said if I ever needed to talk...

Come on in.

Okay, so you're telling me there's a chance

that boy's still alive?

Matty thinks so.

But he won't go to the cops 'cause he's afraid they'll send him home.

Oh God, what that poor boy's been through.

Hi, Mr. Kersh.

Dear, you remember Lilly.

Terri Bainbridge's kid.

Yes, sir.

Where's my steak?

It's almost done.

I'll bring it to you in a minute.

Don't overcook it again.

If someone has that kid, we have to go to the police.

-No, I promised Matty. -This is grownup business.

It's not like you can go down there yourself.

I think we can save Phil.

Lilly, you're not thinking straight.

Promise me that you won't go down there.

Friends or not, it's not worth you dying too.

Promise me.

Promise.

Well... it's not so bad, right?

A little smaller than our house,

but it'll do for now, right?

Can I go for a walk?

Thought I'd explore the base if I gotta be stuck here.

Yeah.

I'm sure there's a rec center, darts...

you know? Will...

You'll see your friends again, as soon as your daddy says it's safe.

I love you.

I love you.

Local resident William Drivens

was arrested for trying to chop down one of its legs

with an axe.

In other news,

a prison bus en route to Shawshank Penitentiary

crashed yesterday off Route 9.

Sources on the scene confirmed there were multiple casualties.

And one of the passengers,

notorious murder suspect Hank Grogan,

is believed to have escaped.

-Roads may be blocked... -Oh my God.

...as searches take effect,

-and police are asking... -Oh dear.

...anyone with information to contact the DPD tipline.

If you're on the west side today,

you might notice that the streets

between Center and Neibolt have been closed off

due to a reported gas main leak.

Authorities are urging residents to steer clear of the area today.

I've been trying for days now to get this thing on Main Street.

I've lost nine already.

It's always the wind, man.

Always...

What's she doing here?

I just want to help.

I'm supposed to trust a Pattycake?

Ex.

Hey. It came for her too.

Look, I thought about it. And we can't make Matty go to the police.

-What? -They won't believe him.

And he's right.

They'll send him right back to his dad.

But if Phil's really alive

and can prove your dad is innocent...

then we have to go save him ourselves.

-Are you insane? -No way.

I'm not going down there again.

You said yourself, you'd sooner go back to the sewers than home.

Well, good, 'cause you're gonna take us down there right now

and show us exactly where Phil is, and we're gonna get him out of there.

Either that, or we drag you to the cops.

Right now, all of us.

We can't go down there. We'll get eaten.

Not if we have these.

-"Mommy's Little Helper"? -Exactly.

What Will and Matty said about it feeding on fear?

Well, if it's got nothing to feed on, then we have nothing to worry about.

My mom got a refill.

We'll each take as many as we can.

Are you sure that's safe?

My mom eats these like M&Ms.

If they weren't safe, she'd probably be dead by now.

I don't know.

Listen.

My dad used to say, "In life,

people are either anchors or lifeboats."

"They drag you under or they keep you afloat."

I don't know where I'd be right now without you guys.

But Phil? He doesn't have anyone.

And if we don't do something, he won't stand a chance.

So my question is, are you an anchor or a lifeboat?

Lifeboat.

Lifeboat.

Lifeboat?

What? What'd I miss?

You don't want to know.

According to our friends from Indian Marsh,

the house on Neibolt Street was built atop an old ground well

that dates back to colonial days.

-Clear! -Clear!

The objects we're looking for, 13 Indian artifacts

that the natives refer to as pillars,

were buried centuries ago

and in different locations around Derry,

and are now only accessible

through the sewers directly beneath that old well.

Major Hanlon and his team will secure the house,

find the well, and descend into the sewer system

where our guide, Taniel, will lead us through the tunnels

to the location of the pillars.

If necessary, with the assistance of Private Hallorann.

All right, boys. Down the hatch.

But remember, gentlemen, you'll be in enemy territory.

Whatever form this enemy takes,

it will use your own personal fears against you.

Don't freeze, don't trust it.

If you see something that by any rational measure

should not be down there, shoot it.

Be vigilant, stay safe, and secure the assets.

This way.

Can you feel it?

I feel something.

Dick.

Y'all hear that?

Hear what?

Taniel! Are you all right?

Yeah.

Big drop.

Dick!

Baby!

Come on, go. We're gonna fall behind.

Where is he?

Hallorann!

Hallorann!

Where the hell'd he go?

I don't know! He went down and didn't come up.

Dickie.

He's coming for you again.

Grandma?

Grandpa.

Hey, Dickie.

It's time.

Hallorann!

Hey, wait, wait, wait.

Did you hear that?

Hallorann! That you?

I...

want...

you!

Fire!

The hell?

Hallorann!

Hallorann!

We should all take three. That should be enough.

It's kinda bitter.

Better than getting kinda eaten.

Okay.

Lead the way.

We're close now.

What do you say, Hallorann? That right?

Major Hanlon?

Shit! Taniel!

Stop! Taniel!

Making a big mistake now!

Son of a bitch!

This way.

Y'all are cute.

Talking to each other with your minds,

keeping secrets from me.

I may not have had the gift, but I ain't no dummy.

I know everything that that bitch told you.

Don't listen to him.

He's trying to get in your head.

"Dickie."

"Lock 'em away

in a little box in your mind,

and then throw away the key."

He gonna hurt you, baby. Don't listen to him.

She don't understand like we do.

Power like this is meant to be used.

No.

How'd you find that?

How you...

How you find my box?

It was right there.

In the...

In the sphincter of your soul.

You know what's in there, boy.

Don't let him open it!

Nowhere you can bury it that I can't find! You hear me?

They're gonna get you, Dickie.

Keep that box closed.

Let it all go. Come on, boy. Open it up.

-I ain't opening shit. -I ain't telling you one more time.

-Open up the damn box. -I ain't opening shit.

-Open the damn box! -No!

You're gonna have to put that back

where you got that from, 'cause I'm not opening it.

-Or you're gonna what? -I'm gonna f...

Or you'll what? Or you'll what?

Or you'll what?

Grandma!

What you gonna do, huh?

What you gonna do, boy?

You won't open it?

-We'll open it together. -No.

-On the count of three. Ready? -Stop.

Stop. Stop.

-Put it down. -One.

Don't do that. Don't do that. Don't do that. Don't do that.

Stop. Stop. Stop.

Don't do that!

-Stop. -Two.

No. Don't do that!

Leave it alone! Leave it alone!

What is that? What are you?

What are you doing?

Get out of here.

Leave me alone. Get out.

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

I think I took too many pills.

Maybe we did take too many pills.

What'd you say?

What?

What?

Are you okay?

Sorry I'm so slow.

I can't see too well in the dark.

Here, take my hand.

Your hand is really soft.

Oh, well, I borrow my mom's Noxzema sometimes.

No, I mean super-duper soft.

Like a kitty cat's belly.

That's a really weird thing to say.

Are you guys feeling this?

It's like that time I went to Dr. Wagner's

and his hygienist gave me this gas,

and I thought I was floating right out of my...

Are you two holding hands?

-No. -Yeah.

We're getting close.

Jesus Christ, it smells like shit in here.

It's the sewers, Pauly.

What did you think it was gonna smell like?

-Where the hell are they? -I don't know.

We must have got turned around somewhere.

-What are you saying, we're lost? -I don't know.

Shit!

-Hello? -Hey, calm down.

I'm calm. I'm perfectly calm. Don't I sound calm?

Not really.

Is it hot?

Jesus Christ. I'm burning up.

It's a goddamn furnace down here. You're not hot?

Pauly, I'm hot. It's hot. Take it easy.

Why can't we find them, huh?

I feel like something's wrong, man. I got a feeling.

Listen, we'll catch up to the others, or we'll find our own way out.

Either way, we gotta keep moving, all right?

-So, let's just move. -All right.

-Yeah? -All right, all right.

Leroy!

What, what? What is it?

Lee, what are you looking at?

Leroy, help!

I'm scared!

Charlotte?

I want to go home, Lee. I'm scared!

Charlotte, what the hell are you doing down here?

Who the fuck you talking to?

Pauly, you can't see her?

See who? Are you fucking with me?

Put your gun down, baby. I'm scared.

What the fuck?

Can we go home, Lee?

Steady that light, Russo. Steady that light.

-It's not me, it's the battery. -Let's go home, Lee!

Mine's off too. Change yours. Hurry up!

-Get yours on! -What the fuck am I supposed to do?

The fuck was that? What are you doing?

Lee?

Hey, what the hell is going on?

Hey!

-Lee, what the hell is going on? -Hey!

Listen, listen.

Whatever you see down here that's not supposed to be here,

you fucking kill it.

It doesn't fucking matter if it's your first girlfriend,

your high school gym teacher, you fucking kill 'em.

-You got it? -All right.

-Pauly! -Yeah, yeah, yeah. I got it, I got it.

-Kill my gym teacher. I got it. -Okay, let's go.

All right.

Freakin' me out.

Looks like a dead end.

I...

I could've sworn it was right.

Hallorann!

-You hear that? -Hallorann!

Voices.

There's someone else down here.

We should go back.

Oh my God!

It's Susie. Oh my God.

Teddy!

Oh my God!

Is that Phil?

He's dead!

All of the tunnels Are underground

Where none of the children Will ever be found

They wandered away To join the show

And lost their way In the world below

They swallowed the pills And they lost their fear

But nothing they hoped to find was here

That's Matty!

They joined the circus And left their town

Now they live here Down with the clown

-Down with the clown -With the clown

Down here with the clown

Now they live down here

With the clown!

Duck and cover, kiddos.

Guys, wait up!

Help!

Help!

Can anyone hear me?

I see him too.

It's me! Dad!

He's real.

Leroy, he's real!

Shit!

Shit. Fuck.

Shit.

-Fuck. -All right.

What the hell are you all doing here?

Get behind me! Behind me! Move it!

I got you. I got you. I got you.

-Is it bad? -Just look at me.

-Is it bad? -No, it's not. It's not bad, brother.

Not bad? Yeah, it's fucking bad.

-It's not bad. -It's bad.

-I just-- We're gonna patch you up. -Yeah.

So, I can get you out of here and we're gonna patch you up.

-And so, let's go. -No, no, no, no, no, no.

-What? -I wanna rest.

-Let me rest. -No. Fuck that. You can't rest.

-We gotta get out of here. -Let me rest. No.

No, listen. We gotta get the fuck out of here.

-Hey, hey. Lee. Lee. -I got you. What? What?

It's okay. It's okay.

What?

It's my turn.

It's my turn.

I'm sorry.

-I'm sorry, brother. -Hey, listen.

Make it count.

Make it count.

All right. Kids, everybody get out of here.

Run! Now!

Guys!

Ronnie, Marge! Can anyone hear me?

Too bad. So sad.

You couldn't save ol' Matty-boy.

Tasty, tasty Matty-boy.

You convinced everyone to come and see me.

'Cause you're such a good friend.

But such a bad daughter!

Don't turn around.

Don't say anything.

Turn on the car and let's drive.

I saw the news. I was so worried.

Something attacked the bus.

-Attacked? -Yeah.

It just happened so fast.

I don't know what it was.

They've put checkpoints on the state road

going in and out of town.

All right. We have to find someplace for you to go.

Okay. Okay.

-Come home with me. -No, no, no, no, no, no.

It's too risky. It's-- It ain't safe.

You can't stay outdoors. They're combing the woods.

Shit. Shit.

Fuck. Fuck. Shit.

Yeah. Okay.

There might be someone who can help.

Hi.

I'm Mrs. Hanlon.

You called about a visitor?

Mrs. Hanlon?

My name is Ingrid Kersh.

You don't know me, but we have a mutual friend.

And he got hit.

Next thing I know,

he's down, and he's bleeding out.

And so, I get him up.

I take him with me.

It was too late.

Thank you, Major.

If we need any more, we'll let you know.

I am so sorry, Major.

Russo was a good man.

Yes, he was, sir. Thank you.

I want you to know...

these people, they will answer...

for what they led us into.

That being said,

I do still have a few questions of my own.

Sir, I'm sorry.

I would just really like to go be with my family.

Of course.

General. General.

Hallorann.

Did he make it out?

Hasn't reported back to base.

How he'd have made it out of there, I don't know.

But if anyone could find a way,

it's Dick Hallorann.
