- [v/o] I came to see you in hospital

after your accident, but...

you didn't know who I was.

I went looking for you when you got out,

but you were gone.

- Why were you looking for me?

- I might have a few days work for you,

if you're interested.

Nothing physical.

- Doing what?

- Babysitting.

My brother Ed died last year.

He had a daughter, Olga.

She keeps going out to the house where he died.

The place is in the middle of nowhere...

and I don't like the idea of her being out there on her own.

She's out there now.

I've been looking for someone to go out there

and keep her company.

I'd like to send someone I know.

What do you think?

I'll give you 200 a day.

I can't imagine you'll be there for more than five days.

- How did your brother die?

- Suicide.

- Where's her mother?

- Missing.

Vanished eight months ago.

- She's your niece. Why don't you go yourself?

- Honestly,

I couldn't take a week alone with her.

She's got some psychological problems.

She goes into these states, she gets confused,

but she's harmless.

- So 200 a day,

just to go to the house and keep her company?

- That's it.

- There's got to be more to it than that.

[car door closes]

Where's the house?

You didn't say anything about the house being on an island.

- Yes, I did. - No, you didn't.

- I told you the house was isolated.

You agreed to go to the house.

What difference does it make if it's surrounded by water?

- I can't swim.

- Well then it's lucky we got a boat then, isn't it?

[eerie music] ♪♪

[lock clicking]

[exhales]

Olga, we're here.

- Is there anybody else living on the island?

- Just a family of foxes.

You ever hear a fox crying?

- No.

- Sounds like a teenage girl screaming.

You ever hear a teenage girl scream?

- No.

- [scoffs] Sure.

There's something I didn't mention before.

It's not really a big deal.

Olga's a little paranoid.

She doesn't like people getting too close to her physically.

And she doesn't want anybody going into her room,

especially at night.

- That's fine.

- What's fine?

- Stay out of her room.

- Well it's not as simple as that.

She has this odd fear that she'll be attacked in her sleep.

If I could find a woman willing to go on the boat with me,

I'd hire her, but...

[door creaks open]

[chain rattling]

- What's that?

- Olga's grandmother was a sleepwalker.

She used to wear this at night

to stop her walking out into the woods.

- And why are you showing it to me?

- I need you to put this on.

Well the chain's long enough.

You'll be able to walk around.

It just won't let you into certain rooms, including Olga's.

- I have no interest in going into her room.

- Well she needs a little more than just your word.

Turn around, I'll strap you in.

- I'm not putting that on.

- I don't see what the problem is.

It's a job. Every job has a uniform.

- That's not a uniform.

That's a leash, and I'm not putting it on.

- Well then we have a problem.

She'll only agree to have someone stay with her

if they wear this.

- No. - I don't like to have my time wasted.

- Look.

You didn't say anything about an island.

And you sure as shit didn't say anything about wearing a leash.

If you had, I wouldn't be here.

So this is not my problem.

- Come on.

What's the big deal?

[chain rattling]

[chain drops]

See?

Some form of schizophrenia.

Catatonic stupor, Ed used to call it.

Happens when she gets excited.

She must've been looking forward to meeting you.

- Can she hear us?

[clap]

- I don't wanna leave her here on her own but...

I can't leave you here with her if you won't put that on.

Now I wanna be off this island before it gets dark so...

what do ya wanna do?

What are you doing down here?

- I couldn't sleep. I was gonna light a fire.

- You can't.

It's blocked.

The whole room fills with smoke when you try to light it.

My mother had it blocked off after she found birds

living in the chimney.

She didn't want to disturb them.

- Barrett says she's missing.

- Yes?

- What's been done to find her?

- Nothing.

Were you close with my uncle?

Doesn't seem like someone I'd be friends with.

- Why not?

- How 'bout him and your father, were they close?

What are they hunting?

- Foxes.

'Til my mother put a stop to it.

- Barrett said he killed himself.

- In the basement.

He shot himself through the head with this.

My father suffered from terrible claustrophobia.

I remember one night my mother thought it'd be funny

to put him in the harness.

When he woke up, he begged her for the key but...

she wouldn't give it to him.

He tried to take it from her so...

she swallowed it.

She used to wear that key around her neck like a medal.

She was mad.

She was mad.

He went down into the basement...

and when he came back up the door was locked.

He couldn't get out and...

with his claustrophobia,

he couldn't stand being down there for long so...

he shot himself.

- The door closed behind him?

I'm sorry.

Someone shot her and hid her in the wall in the basement.

Olga's walking around the house with a fuckin' crossbow.

who killed his wife and hid her body in a wall.

Okay.

Okay, we need to get out of here before Barrett gets here.

You left it behind.

- I've never been here before.

- You were.

About a year ago.

- I don't remember that.

What was I doing here?

- Moe sent you.

- For what?

Why did he send me?

- You remember I said my father shot himself in the basement?

- Yes.

- You remember I said he only did that

because he was locked down there?

- You said he was afraid of small spaces

and the door locked behind him.

- You locked the door.

- What?

- Moe said he couldn't go through with it, so...

he paid someone to do it for him.

You.

You lured him down there...

and when he was down there, you locked the door.

You left him there.

- Barrett told you this? - Yes.

- He told you he hired me to come out here

and kill your father?

- He told me you don't remember any of this.

- I think I'd remember killing someone.

- But you don't.

- Olga.

Barrett said you've got some problems.

Maybe you're getting confused.

- [sighs]

- I didn't hurt your father.

I've never been here before.

If you would call him...

he'll tell you what you're saying isn't true.

- No.

Please.

Olga thinks I did something to her father.

Okay?

She says I locked him down in the basement.

She says you told her I did this...

that I come out here and locked him down there.

And then he killed himself.

- Yes.

- What do you mean, "Yes"?

- That's what you did. - Why're you saying this?

- It was a mistake.

I shouldn't've asked.

You shouldn't've said yes.

- I wouldn't do something like this.

- Before I could call it off, you had it done.

- I don't know why you're saying this.

- Olga, take me off speaker.

- I'm sorry. I won't.

He will.

- He's lying.

- You really don't remember any of this?

- I wouldn't do something like this.

This never happened.

- Moe says you were a different person before the accident.

- Call the police.

If I did it, then they can prove it.

- Moe says you did it.

- Well let me go and I'll go to the police.

- I can't.

- If something happens to me here...

if I don't come back--

- Does anyone know you're here?

his mental daughter.

She won't accept he killed himself.

- So he was dead when you got there?

- Yes. He was dead.

- What happened after I called you?

- I went out there...

and I found him dead in the tunnel off the basement

where you said he was.

I notified the police

that my brother had taken his own life.

They came out, took the body away,

asked me some questions.

- Who locked the door?

- What?

- The door was already locked when I got there.

Who locked it?

- The wind must've closed it.

- You need to turn the key to lock it.

Was it you?

- Why would I lock him in

then come back and ask you to do it?

- It's your money.

And I don't ever wanna see you again.

Are you gonna tell anyone what I asked you to do?

- What's there to tell?

What kind of guy

would want to kill his own brother?

- I don't think you've got over the shock of seeing Ed

down there in that basement.

Now I'm gonna come back in the morning

when you've had some sleep.

And we're gonna go through this again.
