Don't worry, Zach.

See, Zach, everything's okay.

Yeah.

Sh, sh-sh.

Aaron?

Almost done.

Zach?

Oh, god.

No!

No!

Opa.

Oh, yeah.

Okay. Hey.

There it is, my little prince,

it's your kingdom.

Here we go.

Hey, buddy, this is your room.

Hm.

Yeah, these are all your new friends.

You gonna say, "Hello, jaguar.

Hello, alligator.

Hello, giraffe."

Oy.

Asleep.

You ever have one of those moments,

just like you imagined it?

This little kid sleeps through anything.

Hi, uh, Schoenberg?

It's Guerrero.

Ah, yeah.

It's my mother-in-law, that explains it.

Schoenberg's my wife's maiden name. I can sign.

- Yeah, sure. - Yeah.

- There you go. - Great. Thank you.

Oh.

All right.

Hey, Papo, wanna say hi to baby Eli?

Hey, Papo, look.

It's your little brother.

Yeah.

That's Eli.

We gotta look after him, yeah.

It was my sister's stuff.

Toys that, uh,

belonged to a baby who...

Who died.

I'm not superstitious, I'm just saying.

You know, what happened to her son,

and the whole accident with her husband.

What happened? Papo scare you, huh?

Oh, come on, let's get you over here, put you down.

Okay? Yeah.

Papo's a friend, Eli.

It's okay.

Yeah, it's all right, buddy.

- Got your ear. - Oh, my god.

And I

got your nose.

Look at this.

It's got writing on it.

It's got music.

It's Hebrew.

All right, Hebrew school, let's put you to work.

Got jokes, all right.

Yeah, come on. See what you got.

Um...

It's like a prayer, but not.

Hm.

Hang on, I got-I got something for that.

That's good.

You need a cheat sheet.

See, you probably don't even speak Hebrew.

I think I need to call my mother.

Wow, wow, I mean, I think what you mean to say is

thank you, my love, for getting my mother off our backs

and proving your undying love for me and Judaism

by converting, maybe?

- Thank you, my love. - Mm-hm.

- What was it again? - Mm-hm.

Ah, look, here it is.

It's a zemer. Yeah.

Right.

It's a zemer.

Mm-hm, zemer, it's like a hymn, a religious song,

also like a lullaby.

It's actually beautiful.

It's classic Vivian.

Can you make out the tune?

Um...

Okay, we don't need a lullaby.

Hello.

Thank you.

Yeah, he came out so cute, the little munchkin.

I can't even tell you,

he's like a perfect little soufflé.

Um, hey, so, right...

Where are we on reservations?

You think this is too easy?

We got this.

You know, I bet I won't even need the full month.

Oh.

Please, Eli, just work it out.

Okay, I'll take him so you can, uh, get ready.

Come on, buddy.

I'm, oh, let me get this first.

- I know. I know. - There we go.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay.

All right now.

- Yeah. - I can't do this.

I can't... Look at me, I'm a freaking mess.

I can't, I can't, I can't go in like this.

I've had, what, 45 minutes sleep this week?

- Okay, all right. - I can't, I can't do it.

How can I help?

I don't know. The restaurant was also my baby.

I just feel like it's slipping through my fingers.

Okay.

Okay. Okay. Up, up.

- Oh. - Up, up, up.

- Hey. - Rach, love,

I saw you build that restaurant, okay?

Yeah.

It's not going anywhere, okay?

- I know. - You're amazing.

Well, I'm amazing at that 'cause I know how to do it.

I just, I don't know how to do this

and that at the same time.

I have no doubt.

Oh.

Okay, look, um, I'll call the gallery.

I'll tell the guys, oh, you got my...

Did you get my nose now?

I'll let them know that I'm gonna stay home.

- I'm not even gonna... - It'll be me and you.

- No. No. - Yeah, me and Eli.

No, no, you can't.

This is your biggest exhibition ever, baby.

Oh.

You gotta go to the gallery

and make sure your psychedelic chicken is on point.

It's a phoenix.

Well, you know, at least one of us

can rise from the ashes.

I'm gonna stay with you.

- We're gonna work it out. - Yeah? You sure?

I got pretty close to getting out the door today, buddy.

- You did. You certainly did. - I did. I got close.

- I did. - You'll need that.

We're gonna work it out, buddy.

Get outta here. Get out before it's too late.

- Okay. - Hi.

All right, we a team, we a team, we a team.

We a team, we a team. Yeah, we totally a team.

We got it. Oh, god.

Yeah.

I, uh, I thought we agreed on white truffles.

What?

On white truffles. Sh, sh.

Yep, but you're still gonna sit down.

You can cry about it.

Hi. Hey, baby.

Oh, this one, oh, look, it's fun, it's fun.

Be happy.

Look, look at the bird.

Look at the bird. Yeah.

It's okay.

Look.

You wanna clap? You wanna do this?

I just need five minutes, okay?

Okay?

You're a good guy. Yeah.

You're a good guy.

Please, I just need to poop.

Eli.

No, don't eat that, don't eat that.

No, don't eat that. No.

That's right.

We're gonna... Oh.

Okay.

Okay, we've got this.

Clean?

Vivian, Vivian. Vivian?

Oh, Vivian.

Thank you, sis.

Gold up in here.

There's some gold up in here.

What is that? Look, what's that?

Stopped crying.

It works.

Is that a little bit of drool?

Oh...

Johnny.

Sh, sh, sh.

Baby,

you did it.

I love you so much.

Hey, honey.

Can you hear that?

I hear...

absolutely nothing.

Not a peep.

Not a snort.

Not for hours.

It was the lullaby.

Ah, your, uh, your sister's book.

Mm-hm.

So, you were able to read my translations?

Mm-hm.

It, I don't know, it put him right to sleep.

Thank you.

How is this even possible? You just got in the door.

Ah, baby puke.

It's inevitable.

Hmm.

Oh, uh, your dress is unzipped.

Really?

Oops.

John?

Fuck this.

Mom face.

Great.

Guess who's still asleep?

Elias Samson Guerrero?

Yep.

What a good boy.

Yeah.

Shit!

Rach.

Rach.

It's fine.

Look, I'm sorry. I saw...

You don't have to apologize. You had an honest reaction,

that's just life. It's what happens.

Hey, no, look...

Wait a minute.

We need a new baby monitor.

I'm gonna be back soon.

Hey, Papo.

Hey, buddy.

Hi.

Yeah.

Hey.

How you doin', bud? Yeah.

I know. Yeah, hello.

You're not mad at me, are you?

Look at yourself.

What is that?

Huh.

Okay, let's get outta here.

Hello?

Are you okay?

Stupid bird, I swear to you...

I'm gonna make a pillow outta you.

Hey. Hey.

Hey, what-what's wrong? What happened? What happened?

There's, I think there's someone,

there's someone in the apartment. I...

What do you... What do you mean?

So, so, okay, so there was a blackout,

and then I...

There, I think there's something or someone, I...

Did you call the police?

No, I didn't. I... I didn't.

- Hello? - Hello.

If someone's in here, come out.

Hey!

Baby, is everything okay?

Yeah.

Stay in the hall.

Oh, god.

Oh, shit, no.

No, Papo. No, no, no.

Papo. No.

My mom got him for me.

Had him since I was 11.

I'm so sorry, baby. I'm so sorry.

I'm so sorry.

Don't be.

It's not your fault.

I did it.

I, I'm...

I'm not okay.

I'm trying really, really hard to be okay,

but I think I'm not okay, I think I'm...

I think I'm actually losing my mind.

I mean, Vivian lost her mind,

she tucked her dead baby

into his crib for, like, two weeks.

Rach, you're not Vivian, okay?

You know, we're just...

stressed.

Parents of a newborn baby.

I'm seeing things.

I'm seeing this woman,

this old,

hag witch woman

in the darkness, in the mirror,

in the freaking baby store. I'm going...

Well, I suppose, wife's going bat-shit crazy,

that's how I'd react too.

No, Rach,

you are not going crazy.

Did you see... Is that what you saw?

Did you see something like that?

- That's her. That's her. - Yeah, okay.

The other morning, in the shower,

same creepy image got in my head.

Right.

So, we're just, what, like...

sleep-deprived,

freaking cabin fever...

Yeah, probably.

Most likely. Yeah.

But that's not what you believe.

No, you, no.

We're seeing... Come on, we're seeing...

Look, Rach, I believe in us. Okay, that's all.

Whatever this is, whatever's happening,

we're gonna get through this.

Together, okay?

We a team.

Yeah.

Yeah, we a team.

Yeah, and this is going where it belongs.

Yeah.

And Eli's sleeping with us tonight.

Baby's crying.

I'll get it.

I'll get it. You sleep.

Okay. Okay, buddy.

I'm comin', Eli.

I'm comin'.

Eli?

Eli? Eli!

What the...?

Hey, hey!

You steal from me, man.

That's bad karma, man.

That's bad juju!

Hey, do you have an alarm snooze...

Snooze button here?

Eli?

Eli?

Eli?

Eli?

Eli, Eli.

Eli.

Eli.

Eli.

My baby, my baby, my baby.

Yeah.

Yeah.

You gonna be okay?

Absolutely.

We're long overdue

for some father-son bonding time anyway, right?

In the meantime,

Eli, he says he wants you to relax, okay?

Okay. Thanks Eli.

All right, bud, here we go.

Opa.

Let me get that.

Okay. I love you.

I love you more.

Bye.

- Hi. - Hello.

Vivian Brown, please. I'm her sister.

Hey, John.

And the little monster. Hi.

Hey. Hi.

What's happened?

Do Jews have exorcists?

Come. Sit.

Hey, Viv.

Hi, Rachel.

- Can I sit? - Of course.

Rachel's sister,

Vivian,

came to me with the same story,

the same questions.

Vivian did?

What did you tell her?

You thought she was crazy.

Mom sent your stuff, from storage.

No. No, no. No, no. I locked that stuff up.

Mom...

Mama should not have done that.

I found the lullaby book.

Did you sing from it?

Rachel, listen to me.

Zachary was taken.

I sang that song, and she came

and she took him.

Who came?

Who is she?

Lilith.

Lilith

was the first woman

made by God to be Adam's wife.

They would lie together

in Eden,

and he would sing her a song.

It was their special song.

And whenever Lilith heard that song

she'd come running.

She loved Adam,

but she was a strong woman and she refused to submit.

The legend says

she was banished from the Garden of Eden by God.

She roamed the wilderness.

She lay with wolves.

And gave birth to her own race of imperfect creations.

Deformed,

hungry, half human, half...

Half something else.

Lilith saw Adam and Eve and their perfect babies,

and then she looked at her own broken children.

And that's when she started stealing their children.

Our children.

And so it went for generations,

until God listened

to the prayers of Adam's progeny,

and he sent her

to the underworld.

You know the word lullaby comes from Lilith-abi.

It means "Lilith begone."

Mothers sing lullabies to keep Lilith away.

But Lilith,

Lilith took her and Adam's song,

their special song,

and she twisted it.

She turned it into a lullaby that does the opposite.

It summons her.

I sang that song,

and she came.

She took my Zachary,

and that corpse they found

that had been dead for who knows how long, that...

That was not my son.

I can help you, Rachel.

I can help Eli.

I need to help Eli.

How?

You have to get me the fuck outta here.

Rabbi, this woman, Lilith...

She's a myth.

What I'm telling you are legends,

fables used for lessons and guidance.

Yeah, I know, that's why I'm here.

Lilith, she's in your stories, your fables.

I'm telling you, something's happening.

- And I wanna help. - Then help.

There has to be something.

A-a-a prayer you can give me. I don't know, something.

That isn't how our religion works.

Is this what you told Vivian

when she came to you looking for answers?

There was nothing I could do.

Rach, we're home.

Hey, bud.

What do you say we get out of that, huh?

And now we go opa.

Oh, yeah, we're not gonna forget this thing, right?

Yeah.

Yeah, huh? Rach?

Shit.

Okay, buddy, I need you to hang here, okay?

Opa. There we go. You have the toy.

Okay? Just for second.

Shit.

Shit.

Shit.

What, you just... you left him?

What?

No, I just-I just put him down for a second.

The-the bathroom...

Is he okay?

Vivian.

They're here.

Lilith's servants.

We cover mirrors after funerals

so our departed loved ones don't stare at us

from the afterlife.

So it is with Lilith.

I thought that breaking the mirrors would work,

but this is better.

This is right.

Right.

Isn't she supposed to be in the psych ward?

Maybe.

So you thought it was a good idea

to bring your crazy sister here?

Don't talk about her like that.

Maybe this wasn't a fire that needs gasoline, Rach.

I just thought after everything

we've been through and experienced and, you know,

the book was hers.

She-she-she lost it.

Exactly. She lost.

She lost her baby. She lost her husband.

She lost her mind.

I didn't lose my baby.

That thing we buried was not my child.

Lilith took my little boy

and her Crone killed my husband.

I thought a mirror fell on him.

You don't have the luxury of skepticism, John.

Not anymore.

You sang her song,

and now she is coming for Eli.

What's the plan here?

I mean, but how... How do we protect our son?

Don't take your eyes off him.

And if you see her Crone,

run.

Come with me.

Let's finish.

Hello?

I understand you have a book.

Who is this?

Your rabbi said you need help, John.

Get a pen.

You're leaving?

There's something I have to do.

Don't worry. We'll keep Eli safe.

I see congratulations are in order.

With everything going on, I...

I don't think I've even told Johnny.

That came so easy.

What is it?

No, this thought just comes into my head sometimes.

I don't even wanna say it out loud.

It's a horrible, horrible thought.

What if this is the universe's way of telling me

I'm not fit to be a mom?

No, Rachel, no.

Don't you dare question that.

This, this is exactly what she does.

She gets inside your head,

makes you ask if you deserve to be Eli's mother,

makes you lose faith.

You can't let her take that bond away.

You are his mother and you always will be.

I always loved this lamp.

I'm glad you kept it.

Hey, where did the lullaby book come from?

Nowhere exciting.

Little antique shop in West Nowheresville, Maine.

Why didn't you throw it away?

Because it's real.

Because it proves what happened.

It's Shabbes.

Oh, right, yeah.

I'm sorry.

Uh, I'm looking...

Looking for this address.

The Dybbuk Man.

Unbelievable.

Rabbi Cohen's waiting.

You called me on the Sabbath.

You brought the book?

Now...

Kinda beautiful in a creepy way.

We live in kinda creepy,

kinda beautiful times, don't we?

My wife's parents didn't speak to her for months

when she got her tattoo.

This is not classical Hebrew, but neither is it modern,

probably from a middle period.

Oh.

Well, see, it's-it's pressed.

Can't be older than late 15th century, I'd say.

Mm-hm.

Good.

These tattoos are not the only reason

I'm going to be unwelcome in a Jewish cemetery.

And as for the phone call,

with what you're facing,

God will understand.

You sang this song to make your child sleep?

My wife did, yeah.

It's a clever trap,

tricking you into taking that first step,

giving the key that first twist.

First step?

The first of three... rituals.

Lilith is close, she's watching you,

but the door's not open for her yet.

The song is the first ritual,

which calls her handmaid, the Crone,

and her servants, the Lilim.

Lilim?

Fucked up, mutant babies.

Mutant?

Okay.

The second ritual is a blood sacrifice

of an unclean beast to profane your home.

Wait, right, uh,

what-what kind of rabbi did you say you were?

The kind that saves your son.

Have you had any animals that have died lately?

Pets, that sort of thing?

Yeah, I had a...

a cockatoo that died.

It was an accident.

A parrot.

That's unclean.

What's the third step?

The third step is you have to spill the baby's blood.

Well, that's not gonna happen.

Neither would sacrificing your pet.

Don't you see?

The harbingers are subtle.

They manipulate.

They live to open the door for Lilith.

If Eli spills one drop of blood,

Lilith will come and she will take him,

and she will leave an imposter,

a golem, in his place.

Hey, what's up? What's up?

What's up? What happened?

What happened? What happened, baby?

What, sh, sh, sh, sh, sh, sh.

Okay, okay, okay.

♪ Hush little baby, don't say a word ♪

Oh, my god, baby.

Oh, my god. Oh, my god.

Hey, are you okay?

I hit his head.

I hit his head I think.

- Sh. - Oh, he's okay.

Shush, shush.

Oh, Vivian, I don't know what to do.

Here, here, let me take him.

Okay, okay.

Sh, sh, sh, sh, sh.

Oh, yes, oh.

Sh, sh, sh.

Yeah, he's good.

Hi, there.

I'm actually... I'm gonna take a moment.

I'll be right back.

Take your time.

Oh. Bye, Mama.

You need to recite these words.

Stevie, please.

Those candles must burn until dawn.

Lilith cannot come into holy light.

You must do these things

until the first light on Shabbes.

Then, and only then,

will Lilith be driven from your home.

So, it's like splashing some holy water

and saying the Our Father?

Wake up, man.

This is about saving your son.

Tell me, John, why did you convert?

Love.

And my mother-in-law.

Unfortunately, Lilith isn't that easily fooled.

She can tell the difference between apathy

and a true believer.

Take this.

It professes your faith, John.

Lilith is strong,

but she's not as strong as faith.

And that's something you're going to need to muster.

This stays here.

It is a thing of darkness

and does not belong in this world.

Go with God.

Is everything okay?

Yep. He's getting ready to snooze.

Nebech.

Poor motherfucker.

You, you told Mom to send me the lullaby book.

You wanted me to sing it.

Yes.

No.

A bit of both, Rach.

Every night since Eli was born,

I sat there praying that you'd sing

and praying that you wouldn't.

Give him to me.

She'll come.

We'll follow her into the dark,

and we'll bring them both home,

Eli and Zachary.

If you hurt him...

It's just a little pin prick.

Sing with me, Rachel.
