No, now it's not the best time. Can I call you back later?

Yes, it's in the home area.

Mom, it's always the same question.

I already told you where it was.

It's upstate New York, New Springwell.

No.

No, no, it's not in ruins. No, it's just a little fixing up.

Give her a big kiss?

Listen, we still have a lot of unpacking to do. I'll call you back later, I

promise. Okay?

Bye, Mom.

So when's the Queen Mom paying us a visit?

Oh, don't hold your breath.

Hey, Junebug.

Hey, come here.

Sweet home.

Kate!

Kate?

What are you doing?

I said I'll handle this. Like next month or something?

Whoa, whoa, whoa. What's that supposed to mean?

Maybe you can start drawing and then nothing else will matter.

Hey.

What?

I wasn't nagging you. Oh, come on.

Are you serious?

You can't say your mom didn't want you.

It's faster than the stairs.

Sorry.

Chase! What's going on?

I'm calling the power company.

You did it.

I'll become a great painter.

Then I'll be...

A perfect housewife, slowly turning into a fat cow.

I will love you fat.

Yeah, sure.

You know you should grow a longer beard.

Genius painters all have beards.

What?

A wimp?

I know all about life in the wilderness.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah. Like Belgium has anything remotely wild about it.

They will make close to a thousand different beers. I say that's pretty

Oh, my God. What have you dragged me into?

Now I'm stuck here with this city boy.

Come here, you farm girl.

I show you, farm girl. Show me, farm girl. Show me, farm girl.

Please take that first step.

Yeah, I know.

Do it.

Honey.

Do we have plans for the house?

Yeah, I think so.

Hello, Andre.

Hey, Katrina.

I'm going to cut to the chase. You're my best translator, and I need this for

yesterday.

Flattery will get you everywhere.

Yeah, and paying very little.

Two weeks?

I can't do that at all.

Matt?

The guy from the power company is here.

Holy Mary, Mother of God.

I know.

What?

This thing is older than my grandma.

Is it causing a service?

Could be.

Can you do anything about it?

I've never seen anything like it.

I'm guessing you're not from these parts.

No, we just moved down from New York. Before that?

Oh, Europe.

You know, I was real surprised when they told me someone had finally bought this

place.

And again, it was a long time ago.

What was a long time ago?

The previous owners.

They got killed in this house.

You know.

Shit, nobody told you?

Listen, if I was you, I wouldn't touch it.

But I'll get you an estimate when I can.

Well, good luck.

Two people were found dead in their home yesterday morning at their home. A

couple identified as Paul and Madeline Schaefer were found by Mr. Robert Corby.

God I need another bottle.

Where did you get all this stuff?

Honey.

The real Van Gogh.

1889.

Yeah, sure.

Apples.

By Paul Cezanne.

Matt, are you high or something?

Maybe.

What do you need most in the world?

There's nothing I need.

I'm bad at job.

No, no, no, no. Name a thing.

Come on, there's got to be something, anything.

Please, do it for me.

I want $1 ,000.

Does it look fake?

Where did you find this?

Here.

How did it get here?

Like everything else, it just got here.

Fine, let's see how far I can take this.

Want to ask for more?

Do it.

10 ,000?

Make it 100 ,000. Sure.

Why not a million?

Ask for it.

All right.

I want a million dollars.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

This is fucking scary, Matt. Yes, it is, but I think we should enjoy it.

I've got a bad feeling.

June, look.

The best champagne in the world. Tons of champagne.

I want more money.

I just aborted my brilliant career as a translator.

That my girl?

Oh, is that caviar?

Beluga, my dear.

The best of caviar.

You're so crazy.

How does it work?

What do you want me to say? It's like, I don't know.

Computer?

Who cares how it works?

You just use it.

Yeah, but computers can get bugged.

God is everywhere.

Okay.

Hey.

Where's the necklace you asked for?

I don't know.

Anyway, it was just a figment.

I can always get another.

And another.

And another.

Don't open them. What?

No peeking. This is so mysterious.

Shh, come on, come on.

Open them.

Let's give it another try.

Honey, remember what the doctor said.

There's nothing wrong with you.

There's nothing wrong with me.

There's no reason we can't have children.

The doctors.

I have no idea what they're talking about.

We already tried twice.

Both babies died.

In here.

Remember.

Kate.

Kate.

I'm going for the ride.

Kate?

I love her.

Kate?

Whose baby is this?

There was. Not for us.

We could have tried again. What? Failed again?

You don't know that.

I took a shortcut.

A shortcut? Are you out of your fucking mind?

You used the room to make a baby.

Well,

now do what you need to do.

What's that supposed to mean? You know what it means.

We're not keeping it.

serious.

Kate, you're not... Kate!

I need a word.

Thank you.

He wouldn't wait.

How did you...

Yes? Hi, uh... What patient do you wish to see?

Uh, John Doe.

You want to see John Doe.

The John Doe.

How many do you have?

Just the one.

So, what's the problem?

When you want to see someone at a psychiatric ward, you have to be on that

person's approved visiting list.

John Doe has no list.

You mean he hasn't received a single visit?

In 45 years? Reporter.

Are you a reporter?

Sure.

You're no reporter.

My name is Matt DeWitt.

I live in Springville House.

I've been waiting a long time for this.

For you.

How do you like it?

Do you know about it?

Are you having fun?

Come on.

Nice clothes.

Great food.

Maybe some jewelry, some cash.

Pussy, maybe.

What do you want from me? Why did you kill the Shafers?

It was the only way.

I need answers.

What you need is advice.

Forget about the room.

Get out of the house and do that now, before it's too late.

No, you won't, will you?

I can see it. I know you're kind.

My kind? Yeah, creatures of need.

You crave and you crave and you crave and then... You die.

And you're different.

Oh, yeah.

More ways than you can imagine.

Hey.

Come here.

Let me tell you something.

More dangerous than a person that can't get what they want is a person that gets

whatever they want.

Forty bucks, please.

Trying to figure out how it works

Where are you going?

For a birth affair. No, it's not safe.

What are you talking about?

Kate, trust me.

I have my reasons.

What reasons?

Matt, what reasons?

You know what's going on, don't you?

Not for sure.

Well, you know something.

There's this man.

He knows about the room.

Who?

Mr. John Doe. Come on, that's not funny. Oh, forget it. Matt, please.

Kate, the point is... The room.

makes things.

Okay? That's what it does. It's like a giant 3D printer.

It makes stuff.

And on one condition, which is that you never take that stuff outdoors.

And if you do... But it ages?

And it turns to dust.

But a baby is not a thing.

Come on, concentrate.

Tom and Katie.

Tom and Katie go camping. Good.

What's camping?

It's when you live in a tent.

When you're on vacation.

Can I go camping?

No, you can't.

For the same reason you can't answer the door.

You're sick, my love.

I don't feel sick.

Not germsick.

Well, that's because you're in this house.

It protects you.

But if you go outside, the germs will get you.

There are no germs in town.

Only good germs.

I want to go camping.

We'll see.

Now, oh, my, says Katie, I forgot my bathing...

Cat.

There's no such thing as a bathing cat. Yes, there is. Take a cat, throw it in

the tub. That's a bathing cat. Okay, Shane, I'm not in the mood.

It's a P, so it's bathing... Cat.

It's cap.

Bathing cap. Say it. Bathing cat.

Enough. Cat, cat, cat.

Stop that. Cat, cat, cat.

Stop it right now!

Cat!

Cat!

You go pick those up.

Right now, Shane!

Shane? Breakfast is ready.

Eat.

It's your ex.

Shane, you come back here and finish your breakfast.

Now!

I'm not doing it.

You don't like it?

Feel free to leave.

Anytime you want.

You'll hurt your teeth.

I love you.

Do you love me?

Of course I do.

Can I sleep with you?

I

wanna

be with you forever.

Do you wanna be with me forever too?

Of course I do.

What are you doing in here?

What happened?

How long are you going to be doing this? Huh? This ridiculous hermit routine.

I told you he cannot come in here. This is my room.

Why'd they have to do this? Check the baby.

No, he's not.

He's a fitment.

For fuck's sake, I'm not having this conversation again.

Did you do this?

What time is it? Did you?

No.

Did you do this?

This is amazing.

Do not go in there. Do you understand?

Take him, I'll go.

We can't stop us from going into the room.

Watch me.

That he was only playing.

He didn't hurt anyone.

What does it mean, Matt?

That she is clever?

Smarter than we are?

Mean. He can dream up, I don't know, a dragon.

And a dragon will magically surface in her home. A host of dragons.

Are you afraid of him? Of course I am.

And you should be too.

But he's only a child. So he can't control his emotions.

He can get mad at you because you wouldn't let him watch TV.

He can want to hurt you.

Or me.

Or both of us.

I'm not giving him that option.

And you should.

Hello,

boy.

Yes?

Who is this?

You know you're not allowed to answer the phone. What was it?

He said his name was John Doe.

You don't call here, you understand?

So you made a child, Matt.

Nice boy.

Did you ask for it?

Who asked for it, Matt?

My wife.

My mother showed it to me. Next question.

Is there a way to stop the aging process?

You mean a way to bring something outside of the house so it doesn't turn

dust? Yes.

Yeah, there's a way, Matt, but I don't think you want to know. I have to know.

You know the rule, Matt. Nothing created inside the room can survive outside the

house. You know that, right?

Wrong.

Answer this. What did it take for man to be free?

I'm not in the mood for riddles.

What did it take?

I don't know. God had to die, of course.

Didn't you read Nietzsche?

Man wants to be free, but first the creator must die.

It's just the natural order of things, you know?

Children outliving their parents. I don't understand.

Matt, if your wife dies, then the child she created inside the room becomes part

of this world and he's free to live and to love and age like

anyone else.

He's free to be into a mental institution for the rest of his life.

You're a figment too.

They wanted me to live, so they knew they had to die.

My first mother killed father, and then she forced me to.

That was hard enough.

But here's a question for you, Matt.

What are you going to do?

Okay.

Kate, I'm officially worried. Call me, okay?

Or better yet, come home.

Nina.

Well, Mummy?

I don't know.

When's she coming back?

I don't know.

You don't know anything?

That's right.

What's a figment?

You told Mummy I was a figment. Is that bad?

No, it's... No, it's... It's nothing.

Forget I said it. Come on, eat your food.

You're not my dad.

You agree on something.

Where is he?

Where is my real dad?

What did you do to him?

Where is my real one?

Tell me where he is. Tell me where my real dad is.

Listen, kid.

You don't have a dad.

You don't have a mother either.

Kate?

is not your mother.

Yes, he is.

No.

She's not.

And you're not a real kid.

You want to know what a figment is?

It's something that's not real.

Like you.

Do you know why you're not allowed to go outside?

Forget germs.

If you leave this place, you'll grow older and older till you're nothing but

tiny pile of dust.

Do you remember anything before the past three months?

Do you have any memory outside of this house?

Did you ever celebrate a birthday?

You're not a real person.

You're an idea.

Listen, Shannon, I'm sorry, okay?

I'm really sorry.

Will you read to me?

Where were you?

Up. I called.

I know.

Listen, about what you heard on the phone... I don't want to talk about it.

Kate! Kate!

Kate.

Oh, my God.

Look, Mommy.

I'm big now.

Shane.

It's not loaded.

I know I keep your bullets, too.

Shane.

Give me the gun. I hate you!

No! No!

Look at me, Shane.

You lied to me.

To protect you.

You said we'd be together.

Forever.

Would you like that?

Yeah?

Yeah? Yeah.

Easy. Easy.

Where is he?

Dead.

What?

How?

We were fighting for the gun and he got shot.

to get outside.

Okay.

Kate? Kate?

What are we gonna do?

About what?

About this place.

I don't think I can live here anymore.

Why not?

Where can we go? We have no money, no jobs.

At least, who will provide?

It's been hard, but we'll get over it.

What do you want to do?

Hey, Mom.

Hmm.

We have to go.

What? Yes, it's me. Come on.

Who's just like you?

Kate.

No, no, no, Kate. Don't listen to him. It's the room. Come with me. No, no, no,

no, no. Don't listen to him.

Kate, it's me.

No, Kate, come with me. Come on.

Junebug.

Should I open it?

No.

Mommy? It's okay, Mommy.

Mommy!

Thank you.

Honey, open up. I'll get you coffee.

Kate!
