Original subtitles

When I was young, my dad used to tell me

stories about the stars.

I remember him telling me how all the

stars in the night sky were no longer

there.

He explained that they were just suns

which had burned out millions of years

ago.

All we can see is the light from them

which has traveled millions of miles

across the solar system to us.

By the time it has reached us,

all the stars have already died.

Now, when I look up at the stars,

all I see are ghosts forever haunting a

mass graveyard in the sky.

I can no longer look at them and see the

beauty which I once [music] could.

I've tried explaining this to other

people,

but no one understands me.

No one has ever really understood me.

Not like he would.

>> [music]

[music]

>> Oh, sweetheart.

>> Oh, it's so

good to have you here. This

>> Oh, [snorts] thank you so much. I'm so

sorry about this.

>> How long do you think it will be?

>> Um 2 weeks maximum. No longer. I'm so

sorry.

I'll see you later.

Come on, sweetheart.

Come on.

>> If I must.

>> Now,

you will be good for your aunt, won't

you?

Look, darling.

I'm sorry you have to stay here for a

couple of weeks.

If I had a choice,

it's just until everything's sorted back

home. I promise.

I promise I'll phone every day.

Darling,

you know your father and I still love

you very much, don't you?

>> It's getting cold out here. Can I go

inside now, Mom?

>> Of course you can, darling. Go on.

See you later.

>> Nice to see you, too.

>> So, I guess you're going to be staying

with us for a while, then.

Well, we better get you settled in. Have

you eaten yet?

>> No.

>> No, I don't suppose you would have. It's

a long drive.

I could do some oxtail soup.

>> I don't really eat meat.

>> You're not one of those, are you?

Well, I'm sure I can fix you something.

You'll be staying in the room upstairs

on the right. Bathroom's on the left.

Don't use all the hot water, though.

Tank makes an awful racket at night, God

knows why.

Anyway, you don't want to disturb the

neighbors, do you?

>> Suppose not.

>> Off you go, then.

>> [music]

[music]

>> Evening.

>> Hi.

>> We don't normally eat food away [music]

from the table.

>> Thanks.

>> Ah, so they decided to call it a day

then, have they?

After all these years,

my sister and your father have decided

they'd be better apart.

I can't say I'm surprised. Last couple

of years have been particularly rocky.

With his new job and all,

they hardly ever saw each other.

>> They could still work things out.

>> Your mother seemed pretty sure it was

all over last night.

>> Can we not talk about it?

>> Sorry.

Didn't mean to go on.

I was just saying

>> Hold on.

>> Anyway,

how's everything with you? How's your

you know, disease?

>> It's not disease, it's an illness. You

can't catch it.

>> mean anything by it.

>> I was just talking to your mother about

it.

She told me you're on some new

medication.

I've got to make sure you You it every

day. After all, we don't want to

relapse.

David and I have managed to get you into

the local school.

Wasn't easy at such short notice, but

they'll take you on while you're staying

here.

>> And you had better not act up like you

did at St. Martin's.

We know the people at St. Edwards on a

personal level.

>> My fault. I can't help that.

>> Well,

let's all just hope that your new

medication manages to keep you under

control this time.

>> So, are you ready for your first day?

>> I guess.

>> Did you sleep well?

>> Kind of.

>> You're not the most talkative person in

the world, are you?

>> I just need a little time to adjust, to

settle in.

>> Come on. You don't want to be late on

your first day.

How do you find your new uniform? Does

it fit you okay?

>> It's okay.

>> We only managed to get this at short

notice. You should be grateful.

Was the room to your standards?

>> It was fine.

Although the tree outside kept me awake

throughout the storm.

>> Tree?

>> Yeah, I think there's a large yew tree

outside my bedroom window. Scraping

against the glass.

>> I think you're mistaken.

>> Why?

>> The tree can't possibly reach your

bedroom window. It's way too far back.

>> Definitely heard something.

>> Are you sure? It's probably just in your

head.

>> I don't think so. It seemed so real.

>> Look, Anna.

That tree can't reach your window.

>> I think I know my own house.

>> And it wouldn't be the first time you've

had a hallucination, now would it?

>> I guess.

>> Here we are then.

You're in Mr. Phillips' class, room 16.

He knows about your disease.

>> It's not a disease.

>> I know, but people have the right to

know.

Just promise not to bring it up in front

of the other pupils.

>> Good.

>> I can't walk you home later. I'm busy

this afternoon.

Although I'm sure a girl of your

intelligence can find her own way home.

>> Sure, I'll be fine.

>> Come on. In you go.

It's a friendly school. They're used to

newcomers.

I'll be back by 6:00.

>> Sit him down.

Good morning. You must be Anna. Mr.

Watts said you'd be joining us today.

Everyone, this is Anna.

She's moved to the area for a little

while and will be joining us for a few

weeks.

I want you all to make her feel very

welcome.

Can I have this?

She's on a trial today.

Still having your full week one printed

out.

We didn't know where to put you yet.

What time you say?

>> Can I take this seat?

>> Sure.

>> Hi.

I'm Anna.

>> Abby.

So, where are you staying?

>> With my aunt and uncle, the

Collingwoods.

Do you know them?

>> Kind of.

>> I only arrived last night. I don't

really know my way around yet.

>> Oh, don't worry. I'll look after you.

>> [snorts]

>> Hi.

>> Hey, Livia.

>> How are you doing?

>> Pretty good.

This is Anna. She's new.

>> Hi Anna.

>> She's staying with the Collingwoods for

a few weeks.

>> The

The

>> The Collingwoods.

But you probably don't know them.

>> We just had Mr. Baxter cover our biology

lesson.

Have you had Miss Baxter for a lesson

yet?

>> No, only Mr. Phillips.

>> Oh, okay.

He's really funny.

Everyone calls him Baxter the wool bag.

What lesson have you got next?

>> Maths, I think.

It's in room 35 or whatever it is.

>> Oh, no, no, no. If it's in room 35, it's

with Miss Briggs. She's actually a

witch. I actually think that she might

be a witch.

And even when I don't have my hand up

and I don't know the answer, she always

picks on me for the questions and then

gets all angry cuz I don't know the

answer.

>> I think I'll just check.

>> Oh.

What kind of bracelet's that?

>> It's medical.

I'm narcoleptic.

>> What What does that mean?

>> It means she keeps falling asleep.

So you're tired like all the time?

>> Kind of.

>> But you can't control when you fall

asleep.

>> That's about right.

Well, it's meant to. I'm on these new

tablets which just helps to stimulate my

central nervous system or something like

that.

I don't really understand it all.

Doctors just spew these confusing words

at me. I just nod and pretend to

understand.

>> So what happened with your old

medication?

>> It stopped working one day.

>> What happened when it stopped working?

Did you like fall [music] asleep for a

really long time like in a coma?

>> Uh

Well,

not really. I just started feeling

really heavy-headed and would sleep in

for longer in the mornings.

Then I'd start sleepwalking.

>> That's so bad. Did [music] you ever do

anything really embarrassing like

sleepwalk when you were naked?

>> I do.

>> I hope not.

>> But how would you know though that you

were sleepwalking?

No one saw you or anything.

>> Used to wake up in strange parts of the

house. Like I'd go to bed in my room

and then I'd wake up a few hours later

downstairs in the living room couch.

Once I thought the house was burning

down. Tried climbing out the window.

Luckily I woke myself up before I

jumped.

>> So that's why you're possessed.

>> Lydia, no no no but this is funny.

>> Have you ever hurt yourself then?

>> Couple of times. Nothing serious. Just a

few cuts and bruises. [music]

>> Have you ever fallen asleep like at the

top of a flight of stairs and then fell

down?

>> No.

There was this one time but I fell

asleep in the middle of the road.

Luckily nothing was coming and a man

picked me up, put me on the side.

>> Was he hot?

>> What?

>> The guy who picked you up, was he hot?

>> He was like 60.

That's hot.

>> Scariest part.

>> What is?

>> Used to get these hallucinations.

>> What like?

>> It was like part of my mind

when I was asleep was working when I was

awake.

I'd see all kinds of strange

frightening things.

I can't really remember.

>> You must remember something.

>> Well

>> [laughter]

>> I ate the fingers.

>> No, don't eat it if it's been on the

floor. This floor hasn't been cleaned

since like dinosaurs were.

>> I'll get a new one. It's all right. I

think I'm capable of getting myself

another spoon.

>> I like her.

She's really odd.

>> Can you pass me a napkin?

See you have a little accident.

Mommy did not teach you how to eat the

book.

>> Your name is Anna, right?

>> How do you know that?

>> You were in my class this morning.

>> Was I?

>> Yeah, I uh

I saw you looking at me.

>> I was looking at everyone in the class.

>> Well, it just seemed that you paid

particular attention to me.

>> No, I didn't.

>> If you say so.

>> You seem pretty full of yourself.

>> I'm Josh, by the way.

>> I didn't ask what your name was.

>> So, how do you like it?

>> Like what?

>> St. Edwards.

>> It's all right. Not as good as the

school I attend back home.

>> How do you like the town?

>> I only arrived last night. I don't

really know my way around it.

>> I could show you around if you like.

Although, it doesn't have much to offer.

>> Nothing much to do around here, then?

>> Not really.

Apart from the beach.

But, if I'm perfectly honest, it's

mostly made up of stones.

Although, if you look hard enough, you

might be able to find a couple of feet

of sand.

>> If I'm quite honest, I quite like small,

quiet towns. I'm not much of a party

animal.

>> No, I like a challenge.

>> Seriously, I'm happy that way.

>> Well, listen, my parents are away for

the week. I'm having a small gathering.

Do you fancy coming?

>> No, that's all right.

I'll pass.

>> Come on, live a little for once, Brooke.

Anyway, do you get to mingle with new

people?

>> I'll think about it.

>> Well, if you don't come, I'll come and

drag you there myself. I know where you

live, Miss Brooke.

>> Where do you live?

>> Not far. Literally, just around the

corner.

Well, around the corner and then on a

bit for another mile and a half.

>> Well,

I'd better let you go, Kate Moss. Seems

you've miles left to trek.

>> Are we going to walk together tomorrow?

Well, I don't know. I probably won't

want me and him. It might be a bit

awkward just the two of us. She's not

the most joyful of people. But, that's

cool. Well, we can talk about it

tonight.

Or else.

Hello.

>> All right down there?

>> You stalking me?

>> Well, technically, as I work here, it

would be you that's stalking me.

>> You work here?

How interesting.

>> It's a family business.

Well, sort of.

>> What's that supposed to mean?

>> Nothing. Look, do you have some sort of

problem with me?

I mean, do you always just form instant

opinions of people?

>> Sorry.

Just not used to new people, new places.

>> Should we start again?

So, what brings you to this shitty

little town then?

>> I'd rather not go into it.

Not with someone I don't really know.

>> Yes, that's that's cool.

>> I'm staying with my aunt and uncle,

Collingwoods.

Do you know them?

>> Yeah, my dad Yeah, my dad used to work

with the steel plant. This was before

all the steel ran out and they relocated

elsewhere.

>> I don't really know much about my

uncle's past.

I've never been here before.

>> So, what's your first impressions?

>> Never really been anywhere where it

feels like the whole world has stopped

spinning.

>> [snorts]

>> I mean, we do have a pretty good beach.

>> Second person to say that to me today.

>> Say what?

>> Beach was the only good thing that Abby

could say about this place.

>> Abigail Hartford?

>> Yeah.

>> I saw you two together in the lunch

hall.

>> And?

>> You do realize she's a total [ __ ]

>> She seems nice to me.

>> It's a long story.

>> An ex?

>> God, no.

Seriously, it's it's really not that

important. I just don't think she's that

nice of a person.

>> Everyone's entitled to an opinion.

>> Look, I finish work in about 20 minutes.

How about I show you around this amazing

beach for once?

>> Is that your way of asking me out?

>> Of course not. I'm I'm just trying to be

friendly.

I like meeting new people.

>> I don't really fancy hanging around here

for 20 minutes.

Can I meet you there?

>> All right.

Beach is a 5-minute walk that way.

Got it?

>> Cool. I just need to pay for these.

>> Sure.

>> [clears throat]

>> That's £4.80.

See you in a bit.

>> Which part of the beach do you want to

meet me at?

>> Just meet me at the base of the main

steps.

>> Josh, will you stop talking and come and

get these boxes down?

You are still working, you know.

>> Think your dad's calling you.

>> He's not my dad.

>> You said this was a family-run business.

>> I mean, he's not my real dad.

>> Josh!

>> All right.

>> [music]

[music]

>> Hello.

Anyone home?

Hey, I didn't think anyone was home.

You're all wet.

Um sorry, I was in the kitchen. I didn't

hear the bell.

Why are you all wet?

I one

I had a little mishap with the sink.

Okay.

I just popped round cuz I realized I

never gave you my address. Huh?

For my party. Tonight. You're coming,

right? Oh, um but I don't I don't think

I can make it now. Oh, Anna, you're

coming. I'm not taking no for an answer.

It'll be good for you.

I'm not leaving till you say yes.

Fine, if that's the only way to get rid

of me.

Charmaine.

Anyway,

my address is 47 Fox Grove. It's just

down past the police station. I'll write

it down so you don't forget.

I'm sorry. I will come.

Promise?

I said I will.

Good.

You might want to put something nice on.

The drowned look is out this season. I

bet I'm going to get all these wet

clothes.

I'll see you later.

>> What are you doing here?

>> You left this on the beach.

>> Thanks.

>> Are you going to tell me what happened?

Why were you in the sea?

>> I fell in.

>> How do you just fall in the sea?

>> I just fell.

>> You can't just fall in the sea.

Why did you run away from me when I came

over?

>> Look, I was wandering across the

shoreline and a large wave took me by

surprise and knocked me over.

I wanted to get home and get out of

these wet clothes as soon as possible.

Is that okay?

>> Sorry, but I just don't believe you.

>> I don't care what you believe. It's the

truth.

How do you know where I live?

>> Well, you told me that you were staying

with the Collingwoods.

And my dad and David used to work

together. Remember?

>> Suppose you mean the man from the store.

>> No, because he's my stepdad.

>> Where's your real dad then?

>> He died.

>> [ __ ]

I'm sorry.

>> Don't worry about it.

I just wanted to make sure you were okay

and that you got your things, but forget

it.

>> I said I was sorry.

>> And I said forget it. All right?

>> Anna, you came. Excellent.

We thought you might have fallen asleep

and forgot.

>> Very funny.

>> Just kidding.

>> Well, here I am.

Can I come in? It's freezing.

>> Oh, yeah. Sorry.

Anna, I knew you would come if I twisted

your arm.

>> I can't stay long. Said to be back by

10.

>> How boring. Well, we better make the

most of it then.

Drink?

>> Sure.

>> What can I get you?

>> Anything soft. Can't drink alcohol on my

tablets.

>> The one?

>> Really.

I can't.

>> Come on.

Orange juice then. Surely the doctor

wouldn't disapprove.

>> That's fine.

So, who's here tonight then?

>> Just a few people from my year.

A couple guys I'm afraid.

>> Good.

>> So, you're not looking to hook up with

anyone then?

>> Not really.

>> Maybe he's caught your eye?

>> No, why?

>> Just saw you talking to uh Joshua

Roberts today.

>> And?

>> You two seemed into each other. Body

language and all.

>> We were only talking.

>> You need to get snappy.

I just saw

>> Well, don't.

>> He's nice enough.

Odd though.

Maybe you two are made for each other.

>> Uh-huh.

What's the deal with you two anyway?

>> What do you mean?

>> He's not your biggest fan.

>> It's a long story.

>> That's what he said.

>> Wait, you've been talking about me

behind my back?

>> No, it just came up in conversation.

>> What did he say?

>> He didn't go into it.

>> I suppose you'll find out eventually.

Years back, his dad had an affair with

my mom.

Things got complicated and he left.

>> I thought you said his dad died.

>> Is that what he told you?

>> Yeah.

>> One day he just up'd and left.

Josh blames my mom, of course.

What do you mean by complicated?

He started bad mouthing my mom saying

that she was involved with some bad

stuff.

>> Bad stuff?

>> God, Han, do you ever stop asking

questions?

>> I'm just curious, that's all.

>> All I know is he's a liar.

>> Abby, I'm dangerously close to getting

sober.

>> Sorry, Lou.

This is Anna. I don't think you've been

introduced yet.

>> Um, sort of.

You're in Miss Brooke's math class,

right?

>> Yeah, hi.

>> So, have you started on the overly

complicated, overly long homework yet?

>> No, she went easy on me, with it being

my first day and all.

>> Oh, lucky you. I almost have to start

mine in the morning. That's if [music]

the hangover doesn't kill me.

>> That's cutting it a bit fine.

>> No, it's fine. I'll just Google all the

answers. Miss Brooke, she's [music]

>> Should we go meet the others? I can

introduce you.

Hi everyone. This is Anna. She's new in

town.

>> Hey.

>> This is Lou, Samantha, Sarah, and Lydia

who you already know.

>> Abby.

This drink tastes off.

>> It's fine to me. What your taste like?

>> It is just only this.

>> Oh.

You think I'm evil enough to spike your

drink?

>> I suppose not.

Abby, can I use your bathroom?

>> Yeah, of course, Han. Up the stairs and

then to the right.

>> [music]

>> Abby, I heard something outside. It's an

odd neighborhood.

>> No, it sounded like children crying out

like they're in pain.

>> What's she got on about?

>> Oh, it's Abby. I can't bring her

outside.

>> Probably just kids messing around.

>> I don't think so.

They sound distressed. Can we check,

please?

>> Abby, what's he got on about?

>> Yeah. [laughter]

>> Now, Abby.

Can't hear anything.

Seems to be coming from that direction,

I'm sure.

>> Hey, well, we'll take a look, but I'm

sure there's nothing there.

I think your tablet's making you go

mental.

>> I heard it, all right?

Get it. Come on.

Anna!

Anna, come back!

Where are you going?

Anna, there's nothing here. This is a

waste of time, and we should be getting

drunk.

This is my sister's.

If there isn't someone dying, you are

paying for this dress.

Anna.

For [ __ ] sake.

>> [groaning]

[snorts]

>> Sorry.

I honestly thought I heard something.

>> It's fine.

Shouldn't you be heading home now?

>> You're mad with me, aren't you?

>> I think you should be getting home.

I should be getting to back to the

others.

It's supposed to be a party.

>> I'll see you tomorrow then.

I'm sorry if I got your dress ruined.

>> I'll live.

>> Huh.

>> Ow.

How did I get here?

>> How much did you have to drink last

night?

>> I didn't drink anything.

>> You know you're not supposed to mix

medication with alcohol.

Surprised it didn't kill you, stupid

girl.

>> I didn't have anything to drink.

Who was that boy that was here last

night?

>> You had a boy in our house?

>> No, not like that.

Little boy dressed in a school uniform.

>> I think your imagination

is running riot again, young lady.

So, what time did you get in last night?

>> Last night? What time is it now then?

>> 7:00.

You better hurry up or you'll be late

for school.

>> you'd be bloody trouble.

I don't know why we agreed to have you.

>> Sorry.

What were you doing last night?

>> You've got a cheek.

You go to some girl's house doing heaven

knows what, crawl back in at some

unsitely hour, and you've got the

audacity to ask us what we've been

doing.

>> And you could have phoned to let us know

you'd be out all night.

>> I left a note.

>> Saying you'd be home at 10:00.

>> I didn't know where you'd gone. How

could I have got hold of you?

>> Well, you shouldn't have gone in the

first place.

I don't know how your mother puts up

with you.

You just don't go off like that.

Get a move on. You'll be late.

>> Ah, Anna.

So good of you to finally join us.

>> I'm sorry I'm late. I overslept.

>> Don't use your illness as an excuse.

>> I'm sorry.

>> Apology accepted.

>> I wasn't

>> Hurry up and sit down.

>> I'm sorry about last night.

You seem to be sorry about a lot of

things.

Is your dress all right?

>> It's ruined.

I could replace it.

>> Don't bother.

What did you do there?

>> Help.

>> Right class, if you want to form an

orderly queue outside, then we can make

our way down.

>> Where are we going?

>> Are you all right, Anna?

>> Yeah, just don't know what's happening.

>> Didn't anyone tell you?

We're going on a geography field trip to

the beach.

>> I don't want to go down to the beach

today.

>> You turn everyone's side in the matter.

It's a lovely day. It should be fun.

>> I guess.

>> Come on.

It means it's outside school for you.

Try and enjoy the sunshine a bit.

Can I ask you a question, Anna?

>> Sure.

>> How are you finding it at St. Edwards?

>> It's fine.

>> Sorry if I was a bit harsh with you when

you came in late.

It's just that at St. Edwards, we pride

ourselves on punctuality.

>> I don't think it will

>> I'm sure it won't.

How are you finding it at Collingwood's?

>> It's okay.

>> You do know, Anna,

if you need help with anything,

anything at all,

you can always come to me.

>> Okay.

>> You remember [music] that, won't you?

>> I will.

>> Hi, I'm looking for Josh. Is he about?

>> No.

>> Do you know where I can find him?

>> Sorry. Who are you?

>> Anna.

Just a friend.

>> He's had to go out of town for the day.

>> Do you know when he might be back?

>> Uh not till later.

Do you want me to pass on a message?

>> No, it's okay.

>> Hello.

>> [sighs]

>> Did I interrupt anything here?

>> Sorry.

What are you doing just standing around?

>> Trying to avoid going inside.

>> How come?

>> Staying with my aunt and uncle isn't

exactly working out.

>> They aren't the friendliest of people.

>> What brings you here?

>> I thought I'd give you one final chance.

>> I'm sorry I've been acting like an

idiot. It's been a hard time for me.

>> It's okay.

I forgive you.

>> Do you want to get out of here for a

bit?

>> Come on.

How much do you really know about this

town?

>> Not much. Why?

>> Do you know what happened in the early

19th century?

>> No.

>> Follow me.

>> What are these?

>> Graves.

>> You mean people are buried here?

>> Children.

>> What?

>> Each stone marks the grave of a child.

>> I feel like I've been here before.

>> When?

>> I don't know, I just

feel like I've been here before. Looks

familiar.

Couldn't have been.

What happened?

>> It's a long story.

Around 100 years ago, this town was a

lot smaller.

There was only one main road in and out.

In May, October, it started to snow and

it wouldn't stop snowing.

It snowed for months and months, all

throughout November, [music]

December, and January.

By February, the last of the summer

harvest was long gone.

Nobody could reach out for help.

And no one could even get anywhere.

People started dying.

>> [music]

>> And the first to go were the children.

>> And they buried them here.

>> [snorts]

>> It gets worse.

There was nothing to eat.

So, they decided to [music] make a

decision.

A decision that would haunt them for the

rest of their lives.

>> What?

>> They ate them.

The children.

>> You've got to be joking.

That's unimaginable.

>> It's just

>> [snorts]

>> It all happened.

I mean, it happened for weeks.

And then nobody could even get out.

And sometimes [music] they just started

to get a little too desperate.

So, if a child was weak,

then they'd simply just finish [music]

them off.

After a couple of weeks, the snow

[music] would finally stop falling.

But they couldn't leave because they had

to wait for the snow it had settled

Before any of them could leave,

they decided that they couldn't let the

outside world [music] know what had

happened.

They simply couldn't live with the

knowledge that the rest of the world

would find out what they'd [music] done.

So, in order to keep the secret, they

they gathered the remains, so the

children's bones and their clothes,

and they buried them in these mounds.

It was only through hushed rumors spread

down through the generations

they kept the secret alive.

>> So, what I'm hearing from the herd

>> is not something this town's

particularly proud of.

You certainly won't hear about it in the

local holiday brochures.

>> Were your family involved?

>> Probably.

I think all the founding families were.

Including yours.

>> Could you stand amongst the graves for

me?

>> You want me in the photo?

>> It's a thing I have.

I can't take a picture without somebody

I know in it.

>> I'm gone.

>> I don't know.

Picture without a person is pointless.

Anyone could have taken it.

Unless there's someone I know in it.

Means more.

It feels more real. Helps me connect

myself with reality.

>> I understand.

>> Do you?

>> Kind of.

Yeah.

>> A little to your left.

I mean my left.

There.

>> So do you think you're ready to face the

dreaded family yet?

>> I don't think I've much of a choice.

>> What's so bad about living with them

anyway?

>> Just got the feeling they don't really

want me around.

>> I think it's like that for everybody our

age.

>> I guess.

>> I'll uh

I'll see you tomorrow.

>> I'd like that.

>> Unless of course you'd rather hang

around with Abigail and her entourage.

>> I don't think we're friends anymore.

>> How come?

>> It's not really worth talking about.

>> It's a shame.

She's such a lovely girl.

Yeah.

>> Thanks for giving me another chance.

>> Anytime.

>> Mr. Phillips phoned. He said you were

late.

I told you you would be.

He actually bothered to phone and tell

you that. And of course, we've known

Laura for years. She's been telling us

all about you.

He told us that you're not really

fitting in too well.

And that you're getting a bit behind

with your classes.

>> I've only been here a few days. I'm

still settling in.

>> Well, you need to start making a better

impression.

I told you before

we have a good relationship with that

school.

>> I'm sorry.

>> Do you have work you can be getting on

with tonight?

>> Just a few these assignments.

>> Well, then you will do them straight

after tea.

>> Come on, finish your dinner. It's

getting cold.

>> [music]

>> Can I sit here?

It's It's how some people just suddenly

decide to dislike you.

>> What happened between you two, then?

>> It's a long story that ends with a dress

getting pulled.

>> I'm sure she deserved it.

>> Is it just me or is this place getting

like a ghost town?

>> Well, apparently a lot of people have

been calling in ill.

I guess there's just something going

around.

I don't get that it always happens in

this time every year.

I mean, people are moving out of the

area and we're always getting new

classmates.

To be honest, I just

I don't think people enjoy living here

that much.

>> Can't say I'm surprised. It sucks.

>> Oi. This is still my hometown, you know.

>> For you.

>> Have you managed to do the work, Hardy?

>> I started but I don't really know what

I'm doing.

>> Want to take a look at mine?

>> Please.

Can I ask you something?

>> What's that?

>> Do you believe in ghosts?

>> That's not really something I waste my

time thinking about.

>> But do you, though?

>> Probably not.

Why do you ask?

>> I've seen some strange things recently.

>> Like the boy in the sea?

>> Yeah, and some other stuff.

>> Such as?

>> The other night at Abigail's house,

I thought I could hear children outside.

>> That's not really that unusual.

>> It sounded like there were loads of them

and they were crying out in pain.

I went out to have a look around, but

nothing.

>> [snorts]

>> So, is that how her dress got ruined?

>> Yeah, she got it on the barbed wire

fence.

And there's been some other things

though.

>> Go on.

>> I keep seeing this man by the tree in my

aunt's garden.

>> Well, you said you've had hallucinations

before.

How do you know this isn't just more of

them?

>> I don't.

And just

feels more real.

>> So, you think ghosts are haunting you?

>> I don't know.

You do believe in that, don't you?

>> Yeah, I believe everything you say.

Look, if you don't feel like going home

just yet, you can always kill some time

at my place.

>> I'd like that.

>> Although, I must warn you.

There might be a bogeyman hiding in the

cupboard.

>> Don't take the piss.

Is anybody else home?

>> There shouldn't be.

Steven should be at the shop, and mom's

away [clears throat] on business stuff.

Shall I take your coat?

>> Yeah, thanks.

You're quite the gentleman.

>> I must get it from my dad.

Ian, my real dad.

Not Steven.

Would you like a drink?

>> No, it's okay.

>> You sure?

I was going to make a brew.

That's a lot of effort just for me.

>> Go on then, but no sugar.

>> You on a diet or something?

>> No.

>> You can go through to the lounge if you

want. I'll be through in a minute.

>> Just be a few minutes. Water's just

boiling.

>> Is your mom?

>> Yeah, that's Emily.

>> She's pretty.

I can see where you get your good looks

from.

What does she do?

>> She works for some pharmacy tool

company.

I'm not sure which one, but she's always

away on sales trips.

>> I thought you said you didn't know

anyone from outside the town.

>> Well, she doesn't really get to

experience the places she visits.

I mean, she's always locked away in some

conference or hotel room.

To be honest, I think it's quite a

lonely life for her.

>> And your dad mind her being away all the

time?

>> You mean Steven?

>> Sorry, Steven.

>> I think he really cares that much.

As long as she brings in the money, then

he's happy.

>> You don't like Steven very much, do you?

>> I just think he's a bit of a dick.

>> Is there a picture of your real dad

anywhere?

>> Not down here, there isn't.

Mom took them all down after his affair.

I've got some hidden upstairs, though.

>> She'd be mad if she knew you had them.

>> Probably not.

I just don't think she wants to be

reminded of what he did.

>> Do you care?

>> It wasn't right.

But he's still my dad, isn't he?

I'll sort the tea.

If you If you

we can go upstairs to my room so I can

show you a picture of my real dad.

>> Is that how you get all the girls to

your room?

>> I just want to show you a picture of my

real dad.

>> [snorts]

>> I'm only kidding.

>> So, what do your parents do?

>> My dad works for a finance company.

Don't ask me too much about it. I

honestly don't know what he does.

>> And your mom?

>> She's a primary school teacher.

>> Is that something you'd like to do?

>> Not really.

To be honest, I haven't really thought

about what I want to do for the rest of

my life.

>> If you don't mind me asking,

why are your parents getting divorced?

>> I guess after 20 years of marriage, they

decided they no longer love each other.

>> That's kind of sad.

>> Yeah.

What's that?

>> It's my memory box.

Just a collection of things from

throughout my life.

You know, stuff from when I was little.

>> It's so cute.

>> I'm just looking for a picture of my

dad.

>> So, what do you think really happened

then?

>> I don't really know.

It's all so vague. I'm sure he

discovered something about Abigail's

family.

>> Such as?

>> I don't know.

Before he had the chance to tell me

everything,

he was gone.

>> Do you think they killed him?

>> I can't prove anything.

Yeah.

I do.

>> What could he have discovered that was

so bad they'd go to such an extreme?

>> I don't know.

>> Didn't you think about going to the

police?

>> I didn't have any proof.

They wouldn't have believed anything I

said.

>> How did you know Abigail's parents were

involved?

>> Well, he mentioned bits and pieces to

me.

But he didn't want to tell me too much

until he was 100% sure himself.

He was just trying to gather all the

evidence and then he disappeared.

>> Does Abigail know about any of this?

>> I don't know.

She never mentioned anything to me.

But it all happened years ago, so I'm

sure that

you know, whatever it was, it's over

now.

Here's my dad.

>> Jesus.

>> What's wrong?

>> I know him.

>> You can't possibly know him.

>> I've seen him.

>> Where?

>> He's the man who's been standing outside

my aunt's house by the tree.

>> Is this the one?

>> Yeah.

Saw him again last night.

I tried to take a photo, but his image

didn't appear.

>> And you're sure that it's definitely my

dad?

>> Sure as I am of you standing here today.

>> So, every time that you've seen him,

he's been stood by this tree?

>> I've only seen him twice.

The first time he moved behind it and

vanished.

The second time, I was looking out of my

bedroom window.

>> Look at that, about halfway up.

It looks like it's been cut open a while

back, now it's just regrown around the

edges.

Do you have a ladder or a spade or just

anything we can use to cut that open

with?

>> Might be something in the shed.

Josh,

I don't think we should do this. What if

there's nothing there? My aunt and uncle

are going to kill me.

>> But what if there is?

Anna, I have to do this.

>> Anna, do you have a flashlight?

>> I'll see if I can find one.

What is it?

They won't even believe us.

>> There's a skeleton in the tree in my

aunt's garden. What more proof do they

want?

>> How are we going to tell them that we

found it?

That the ghost of my dad is there.

>> Obviously, we don't tell them that, do

we?

>> There's a good chance it won't even be

open.

>> Why not?

>> It's only manned for a few hours each

day.

>> Still worth a try.

>> Oh, [ __ ] It's locked.

>> What do we do now?

>> What about Steaman?

>> He's not going to believe us.

He won't even come to your aunt's house

to see for himself.

>> Where is Mr. Phillips then?

>> Just around the corner. Do you think

he'll listen?

>> Don't think we've much of choice.

>> Hello. Josh.

What are you doing here?

>> Can we come in?

>> I'm not sure what the head would think

of that.

>> Please, sir.

>> Very well.

Come in.

So, let me get this straight.

You think somebody's killed your father

and hid his body in a tree

which is in your mom's front garden.

>> I know it sounds crazy. If you just come

with us and look, you'll see his body

there.

>> Wait here a minute.

I'll go give the police a call.

>> I knew he wouldn't believe us.

>> I think he does.

>> Where are you going?

>> I'll be back in a sec.

>> Yeah, that's fine.

Yeah, they're both here now.

Yeah.

>> What do you think you're doing?

>> I was just

looking for the bathroom.

>> It's there.

>> Thanks.

>> That'll be the police.

Wait here.

I'll speak to them.

So, what are you going to tell your aunt

and uncle?

>> I haven't really thought that far ahead.

What are you going to tell Stephen?

>> I might

not say anything.

>> You have to.

>> Why does he even have to know?

>> It'll be on papers.

>> What the hell is going on, young lady?

Why did you call them?

>> Them?

Who do you think you're calling them?

Sorry, Anna.

Look, you're both being hysterical.

There's no dead body in that tree.

>> Shall we go and see then?

>> Fine.

Let's go and prove how delusional you're

both really are. Come on, you.

>> Right. So, this is the tree where the

body is meant to be, right?

Okay.

Do you see anything else?

No, officer.

>> Right.

>> you, officer.

>> What about Anna?

>> There's nothing up there. It's empty.

>> You're lying. Let me see.

>> You're quite clearly the one who's

lying, Anna.

Come on, inside the house.

See what your mother has to say about

all this.

>> You moved it.

That's why you called the social so you

could get rid of it.

>> No one has moved anything. You're having

an episode.

>> But I saw it, too.

>> And you are a liar.

Just like your father.

>> Come on, son.

This isn't helping anyone.

>> You're all in on this.

>> Don't be stupid.

You've imagined all of this.

>> Wouldn't be the first time.

>> In. Now.

You ought to be ashamed, wasting police

time.

>> [music]

>> You've made a fool of us and yourself.

>> Get off me.

>> I think you should both apologize to

everyone here.

>> I'm not apologizing to anyone.

>> You've just outstayed your welcome.

We're ringing your mother tonight to

make arrangements.

I don't think you fully understand the

damage you've caused.

>> Fine.

>> Aren't you going to say sorry?

>> [ __ ] you.

>> I've spoken to your mother. She's going

to collect you tomorrow morning.

She's very disappointed with you.

I think you better start packing.

>> Should we be heading home now?

Why don't you have a go?

Not friendly with him.

Why not?

I have to go.

I reckon I'll be back.

She's back.

I think you should be getting home.

What is it?

I don't understand what you're trying to

tell me. I think you should be getting

home.

>> Okay, we're good.

>> If Steven finds out that I'm not really

talking to you, then he's going to kill

me.

>> Is he really mad with you?

>> Well, I told you you wouldn't believe

us.

He thinks we're leading you astray.

>> That's

Are you going back home?

>> Looks that way. She rang them.

Mum's coming to get me in the morning.

>> So, there's no problem. It's final.

>> I'm not going to go back to my house,

Josh.

>> Well, where are you going to stay?

>> I don't know.

>> You can stay here.

>> Why stay in my room?

>> We'll just have to be very quiet.

>> Um thanks, Josh.

Have you got the spade?

>> Somewhere.

>> I got it.

>> Wait.

>> I think I got to pee.

>> Just wait there a minute.

So, what do you think's buried here?

>> No idea, but it must be something

important.

>> Are you sure this is right?

>> Think so.

Although

it does look a little darker than it did

a couple of hours earlier.

>> Doesn't even feel like top soil.

It's all

cold and wet.

This should be dry and dusty.

>> What does that mean?

>> I don't actually know.

Just think it's a bit strange.

>> There's nothing here.

I'm just going to give up.

It's going to get light soon anyway.

>> Maybe it was all a dream.

>> Who knows?

>> It's cold.

>> Do you want to go home yet?

>> It's not my home anymore.

Want me to go then?

>> God no.

Is there anything that you miss?

>> No, not really.

Well, I guess I miss my dad.

Do you know what stars are?

>> Just are the planets, aren't they?

>> Do you realize that most of them don't

exist anymore?

>> What do you mean?

>> It's light takes so long to reach us. By

the time it does, the stars have already

died.

They simply burned out millions of years

ago.

>> It's actually quite sad to think about.

Why did they die?

>> I don't know.

My dad used to tell me stories about it

when I was younger.

Sometimes I feel like

in a minute now, the whole world will

stop spinning

and everyone will just die.

>> That's got to be the most depressing

thing I've ever heard.

>> It's just how I feel about life.

At least we got each like that until I

met you.

>> Anna.

Anna.

Um when I told you that I was ill,

well, um

there's actually a bit more to it.

I'm um

I'm uh

I'm dying.

>> [music]

>> So, meet me back at yours in the

morning.

>> What will you do if they're in?

>> Just going to grab my stuff and leave.

It's not like they can physically stop

me.

>> Are you sure you don't want me to come

with you?

>> It's okay. Think I can take care of

myself.

>> [panting]

[groaning]

[laughter]

[laughter and gasps]

>> What's wrong then?

>> I'll get Shao Kahn.

>> [panting]

[gasps and crying]

[panting]

[laughter]

>> I suppose you're looking [laughter] for

Anna.

>> Is she here?

>> She's gone.

>> Is there a number I could call her on or

address?

>> No.

I think it's probably in everyone's best

interest if you don't come here again.

>> Hello.

>> Anna.

I thought you'd gone home.

I just spoke to your aunt and she told

>> Listen.

I found it all out. It's all up in the

attic.

>> What is?

What have you found out?

>> You know what he told me on the moors?

He's still doing it.

>> What?

>> There's boxes and trunks full of bones

and clothes.

They killed Lydia.

You were right.

They killed your dad.

He must have found out what was going on

and they killed him to silence him.

>> I don't understand.

Why would they still be doing this?

>> I don't know.

>> Who's involved?

>> Abigail's parents, my aunt and uncle.

Mr. Phillips, pretty much everyone.

>> How could you possibly know all of this?

>> I told you. It's up in the attic.

Come on.

We have to go before they destroy it

all.

>> It's in there.

>> You sure?

>> Yes.

>> [snorts]

>> We have to go to the place.

>> I thought I told you to stay away from

here.

>> What are you doing, boy?

>> What did you think you were going to do?

>> We should have done this years ago.

>> It's okay.

>> Like father,

like son.

>> What the hell was that?

>> doing?

>> Shoot him.

>> Shoot him.

>> [music]

[screaming]

[screaming and crying]

>> I know.

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

[music]
