04 Acid Tests - Miniseries 2002 English

[ALLIE] What makes us human?

That we can think?

That we can feel sorrow and pain?

Maybe.

That we can laugh?

I hope so.

We can hurt and we can laugh
and we know a past and a present.

And. In some ways. A future.

Maybe what makes us human
is that we know just enough

to think we know
where we're going.

[HORN HONKS]

Come on, Manny, let's go.

Wow.

This could be big.

We get these reports
two, three times a week.

Mutilated cattle, dancing lights,

the sort of thing
we're about to look at.

For you to come personally,
you must have some reason.

The reports look good.

First one came in
from a local pilot out of Gary,

then a commercial airline
en route to Chicago.

This could finally be your proof, Dad.

I mean, this could
finally show the threat is real.

We already know that, don't we?

Don't try so hard, kid.

Just do a good job.
Your old man will come around.

Keep these people back!

Keep them back.

Stay back, folks.

Out of the way, please.
Stay back, folks.

[MAN] We may need that.
You never know what's out there.

[SECOND MAN] Looks like a reporter.

[MAN] Notify dispatch...

Reports are all good, Bob.
This is real.

It's a landing strip.
I'd stake my career on it.

Yes, tell the President,
and tell him I believe it signals

that our friends
will soon be here in force.

I really think you
should look at this personally.

Thank you, Bob. Thank you.

- The President's on his way.
- That's great news.

Why don't you...

go help out
with crowd control or something.

[chattering]

[soldier shouts out orders to crowd]

Colonel Crawford. Toby Woodruff.

This is Ted Olson.

Where's the President?

Mr Olson is with the NSA.
I'm with Defence.

The President felt you'd
be better off dealing with the...

the hands-on guys.

The hands-on guys?

You been briefed?

Let's go for a little ride,
and we'll see how you feel.

Look at that.

This has happened before, here
and France, England, and Germany.

The scale of this, the intent.

Look at the formation.
It's like a runway.

Like a landing strip?

If it's a landing strip,
that means they could be...

Landing?

Think Nixon stands
a chance at a second term?

My opinion, he'd have
to fix the next election.

No one likes the creep.

Truman was President
when I started this project.

I've survived four of them.
Nixon will make five.

I've lasted this long

because I know how to ruin
the people who get in my way.

What I want you puppies
to do is get on the phone

and make the President know
he has to be here immediately.

This is a threat to our country
of unparallelled proportions.

You do that for me, because
long after Richard Nixon

is just a faded memory,

I'll be around
to make your lives a living hell.

Looks like there's another one here.

[CREAKING]

[RAVEN CAWS]

[CAW CAW]

Dr Powell, we've got something.

Very nice, Buzz.

It's in remarkable condition.

Where'd you find it?

North six, west twelve.

- Where we found the drums?
- And there's more.

Let's go check it out.

[RAVEN CAWS]

Do you think we could be
onto a smoke hut?

Something the shaman used
to drive out evil spirits?

Yeah, possibly.

Sarah's back on the demons again.

That's why we came here
in the first place, isn't it?

Rumours of demons in the woods.

The places that
the Russian settlers wouldn't go.

Places that people still won't go?

That and 80 years of research
into the Tsimshian people.

Dr Powell.

Yeah. What's up, Daryl?

I found something.

Oh, yeah.

I don't think it's a smoke hut.

Looks to me more like
a funeral potlatch.

The drums, the bowls,

the raven to take the spirit
into the next world.

We're all dead.

First, there's the demons,
then we open up a tomb. We're toast.

Remind me, what are these demons
supposed to be doing?

They're a native version
of the legend

of the Incubus and Succubus.

They would take people
from their homes to the woods,

and sometimes, the women
would come back pregnant.

Sometimes, they don't come back at all.

Daryl, you okay?

I'm hurt, man.

Here. Buzz, grab a ladder.

How you doing, buddy?

I landed bad. I twisted my ankle.

We'll get you out. Don't worry.

What the...

Oh, my God.

Sir.

Yes?

23 years.

What are you going to do?

Learn to fly-fish.

For what it's worth...

I think you got a raw deal.

I tell my doctor I'm worried about
my heart, my blood pressure.

He tells me to take these pills
and to go fly-fishing.

Apparently there's something
soothing about hooking a fish,

looking at them, then letting them go.

What about Jesse Keys?

My smoking gun.

16-year-old boy

with something put in his head
by our friends.

You and I both know
we're never gonna find him.

He disappeared from that
bomb shelter and fell off the planet.

I'll tell you something.

I've never known what our friends
were up to, not a clue.

Roswell, taking all these people.

But the way they took Jesse Keys...

whatever they're doing,

we don't stand a damn chance
against them.

Is there something else?

I was just wondering
where to put the desk.

I guess they didn't want
to go outside the project.

They put me in charge.

Great.

Then you can look for Jesse Keys.

[ALLIE] I asked my dad once
about his dad. My grandfather.

I knew he'd had some hard times.

But I didn't know
a lot more than that.

I said to my dad.

I guess maybe
he was kind of lost.

Not lost. Really. My dad said.

But for a while.
He was definitely bewildered.

♪ I hope to get home all right ♪

♪ Hey, Mr Spaceman ♪

♪ Won't you please ♪
♪ take me along? ♪

♪ I won't do anything wrong ♪

♪ Hey, Mr Spaceman... ♪

What's the weirdest thing
you ever saw?

And acid trips don't count.

I saw this two-headed snake
once at the zoo in San Diego.

And one time, man...

I think I saw a flying saucer.

I've been on a flying saucer,
more than once.

One time, I saw my father.

He'd been dead...

for four days.

Okay, my man.

Now, that is really and truly weird.

A waste of frigging time
and money, going to the moon.

You know what I admired about you
back when we were over there?

I was in four different units
while I was in 'Nam,

and you were the only one.

What do you mean, only one?

Officer who walked point.

Every single mission, you walked point.

At first, I thought it was
just 'cause you was crazy...

Then maybe because you were
the best guy in the whole world.

Or maybe because you'd
seen something that was...

something other than that
Ring of Hell that we were in.

It was because I was
the best guy in the world.

See, now, me?
I believe in everything.

You tell me there's aliens or that you've
gone for a ride on a saucer...

sure, why not?

You tell me they killed the Kennedys

or started the war,
and I am with you 100%%.

But what I'm sorry to hear is...

Is that your experience was so bad

that you could do what we did
without even flinching.

I don't know
what my experience was.

All I know is, my whole
life is like that...

Walking point through a jungle,
waiting for something that...

I can't stop to happen to me.

No disrespect,

but how does that make you
any different than anybody else?

How's my credit?

Sorry, but there's nothing
I can do in that regard.

Willie, I saved your life. Come on.

Two times.

Now I'm gonna save yours.

Get straight.

I don't wanna get straight, Willie.
I wanna get high.

I know, you want to get taken
to that other world.

Well, that costs money.

I'm good for it.

You're not good for nothing,

same as every other junkie
I do business with.

That is why I am
strictly cash-and-carry.

Get straight, and I'd be happy
never to see your face ever again.

If you get some money,
then I'd be happy to accommodate you.

[TRAIN PASSES BY]

[CHURCH BELL CHIMES]

[CHILDREN LAUGHING]

We're expecting a telegram.

From Los Angeles, California?

Your telling me again
doesn't make it get here any quicker.

You're the people
that are digging in the woods?

Yeah.

What are you looking for?

Do you know about the Indians
who used to live out here?

A little bit.

We're trying to find out
more about them.

It's five even.

You gonna be getting the hell
out of there any time soon?

Why are you people so hostile?
We're not doing anything.

You got a home with a backyard?

I got a backyard, yeah.

You go outside, people digging
potholes all over the yard,

maybe digging up things
better left buried,

how are you gonna feel about it?

Thanks.

[door closes]

[NEWSCASTER]
Apollo 13 got into trouble

shortly after 10.00
eastern time last night.

Something happened which cut off
the power and oxygen supply

in the command ship.

At midnight. The astronauts were told
to use the moon-landing ship.

At 3.42 AM. They were ordered
to make the critical firing

to put the mission in an orbit...

Do you think this was an accident?

If I had to weigh our friends' propensity

to interfere against
NASA's growing incompetence,

I think I'd have to go with NASA.

Made their last
television broadcast to earth.

[SECOND MAN] Last night.
After 10 PM. Eastern standard time...

What?

Nothing.

If you were still in charge,
you would have used this

as further proof
of that imminent invasion.

Probably.

[DOORBELL RINGS]

The hypothesis
for Houston at this point

is that it may have been caused
by a collision with a meteoroid

or an explosion on the aircraft...

- Sam.
- Hey, Dad.

What a surprise.

What the hell are you doing here?

Dad said he lost his job.

Right. Like you care about that.

What do you want, Sam?

How's Julie?

She's pregnant. What do you want?

Pregnant. Well, congratulations.

You came home to gloat, didn't you?

You came home because
he lost the organisation.

You still think he's
some sort of a god, don't you?

He craps on you for 21 years,
you keep coming back for more.

- You don't know what you're saying.
- I'm talking about lies, Eric.

I'm talking about this.

A guy named Tom Clarke
says he devoted his life

to exposing
the government UFO hoax.

People see something
strange in the sky,

the government makes them think
it's a UFO, not some secret plane.

People taken in the middle of the night
and filled full of mind-altering drugs.

Must have been cosmic visitors.

It sure wasn't our government
testing some new chemical weapon.

Is that our legacy, Eric?

Is that what he's been doing...
Covering for these creeps?

[OWEN] What creeps?

Tom Clarke. I should have known.

You know him?

Our paths have crossed. I spent
a lifetime building my organisation.

- With one prank, he took it away.
- It wasn't the prank. It's the times.

Nobody cares about this
science-fiction stuff.

Real monsters are running this country,
killing innocent people.

Oh, right, son.

There were no monsters
in my generation. No killing.

You're my son!
This is your inheritance he took!

I don't want any part of that.

- Then why did you come home?
- I was asking the same question.

If you don't give a damn,
why did you come home?

[sliding door opens]

What is it?

Part of your inheritance.

Is it true? Are you really in charge
of some UFO project?

No. Absolutely not.

Guess I could have changed
the combination, but...

I always thought when you were ready,
you'd come home.

I found this at a crash site
in New Mexico.

What crashed
was nothing man-made.

Inside this craft were five beings.

They were not human.

Three of them were dead,

the fourth one died under
observation, and the fifth...

Everything I've done since I found
this wreckage has been about this...

Trying to understand who they are
and what they wanted.

I was wrong about the crop circles,
but I'm not wrong about this.

Something is about to happen.

Maybe next week,
maybe in 30 years,

but these visitors... they're moving
towards something.

It's really true, isn't it?

Dad, you had no right
to hide the truth like that.

Do you know what
would've happened in 1947

if the country had believed we were
about to be attacked from outer space?

I don't know, the growth
of a military-industrial complex?

Senate hearings to determine
if you were or had been

an alien sympathiser?

Maybe we would have started
to invade countries

we thought succumbed to the menace.

I can't abide a mess.

And what about now?

You've kept this from the world
for 23 years, Dad.

Don't you think it's time
you told the truth?

I've only been frightened
once in my adult life.

Would you like me
to tell you about that time?

That fifth one...

the survivor of the crash
that was never accounted for...

I tracked him down
to a small town in Texas.

He had formed a bond there
with a young woman,

And years later,
I went back to that town.

The woman
was not that young then.

She had two grown children,

and she also had a 10-year-old son,

the result of her bond with this stranger.

Her older son Tom is the one
who made that crop circle.

He did it deliberately
to destroy me.

Well, I guess he had his reasons.

I got close to the Clarkes.

I wanted to know more
about the younger boy... Jacob.

I was bringing him back
to the ranch when it happened.

He was a strange boy.

He was gentle,
and he was withdrawn.

When I looked in this boy's eyes,
Sam, what I saw...

What I saw there was
all my memories and all my fears.

More than that, I saw them add up.
Do you understand?

I saw my own death, Sam.

I saw how I would die.

Maybe it was a moment of guilt.

You know, maybe what you saw...

Is what you know you deserve.

Well, there's your story, son.

Your big scoop. A Pulitzer
while you're still an undergraduate.

And all you have to do
is make someone believe you.

[CHATTERING]

Hi. Do you know where I can find
some information on the dig site?

Yeah, I do. Who are you?

Oh. Sam Crawford.

Sarah. How are you doing?

I'm a journalism student
from UC Berkeley.

Uh, Dr Powell?

This is Sam Crawford.
He's a journalism student.

- Nice to meet you.
- How you doing?

- Is that the carbon-dating report?
- Yeah.

Well, how old's our body?

It's about... six years old,
give or take.

Yeah. The wrappings
are bed sheets.

They date back
to the early 1960s.

Lab estimates 1964,
but they can't tell for sure.

We should have known.

There was nothing Tsimshian
about the burial.

They never wrap their dead.

The glyphs were indecipherable,
not their language at all.

Actually, I was hoping
I could talk to you about that.

What did you make of the writings
you found in the burial chamber?

It was no language
we've been able to identify.

Yeah, probably no more real
than our mummy.

I gotta go find the sheriff.

Sam, you're welcome to stick around.

- Thanks.
- Okay.

[ALLIE] I remember my mum
telling me

that she only went
to church once with her mother

on Easter Sunday.

When the minister said

that the kingdom of heaven
was within her.

That scared her half to death.

It meant it was all up to her.

People want the comfort
of strong arms.

They look to the voices
in their heads. To drugs.

They look to the sky.

- Hey.
- Hey.

I can see you didn't take
my advice about getting clean,

so I have to say to myself...

maybe the man's got some money.

I got these.

What are they?

They're my dad's medals.

What the hell are you doing?

- Get a doctor.
- [MAN] Right away.

I want you people packed up
and out of here by tomorrow morning.

Sheriff, we've got to be able
to come to some sort of compromise.

This is a significant
archaeological dig.

I don't care. I want you gone.
Where's the mummy?

Can I ask you something?

You say this mummy might be
evidence of a murder.

That's generally the case
when somebody hides the body.

Then aren't you supposed
to say, Don't leave town,

instead of, Get out of town by sunrise?

You find that helps you as you
make your way through life?

Being a wise-ass?

[DARYL] Hey, Dr Powell?

The mummy was here
just a minute ago.

Well, it didn't just get up
and walk off by itself, now, did it?

Hey, look at this.

[THUNDER]

[RAVEN CAWS]

Mosquitoes starting early
this year, huh, George?

Hmm...

I read somewhere that mosquitoes
have killed more people.

In the history of the world, the way
they spread disease and all,

than all the wars, famines,
and floods put together.

Hard to believe something like that.

I don't know why I buy this stuff.
It doesn't work at all.

Champ!

Champ!

Champ!

Champ.

Champ.

You know what I like to do
for mosquitoes?

I like to get garlic and motor oil

and rub it all over any part of me
that's gonna be exposed.

I never have any trouble
with the little bloodsuckers.

Bye, Louise.

Honey, would you put...

Wendy?

Wendy?

Wendy?

Wendy?

Wendy, I...

Wendy. Wendy!

Wendy!

Wendy!

Wendy!

[RAVEN CAWING]

Wendy!

Wendy!

She knows not to go
in the woods.

She has been told,
and she has been told.

Louise, it's gonna be all right.
Kids wander off all the time.

We find them.

Not in these woods.

[DR POWELL] They walk among us
in many shapes,

and their ways are not
always what we would hope.

So to understand that which is not you,
you must become that other thing.

My grandmother said, Walk a mile
in another man's shoes.

That is the greatest secret
to shape-shifting.

So it's not about the disguise,
it's about knowledge.

You guys really gonna leave
in the morning?

Well, we really don't have
much of a choice.

It was a good dig, sir.

Even without the body, you've done
some important work here.

We were only just getting started.

Yeah.

Nature call.

- Not very subtle, are they?
- Nah.

You really wanna look
at the writing on the wall?

- Yeah.
- Let's go.

- Daryl, you wanna join us?
- Okay.

You sure you wanna do this?

I'm not a virgin,
if that's what you mean.

I'm not talking about that.

I'm saying, you sure you wanna wander
into the deep, dark woods

when there's something out there?

What do you think happened?

Tana leaves. The curse.

He's been revived.

He's coming for you, Sarah.

Cut it out. That's not funny.

[KISSING]

Dr Powell, is the raven
considered a trickster

or a shape-shifter?

Daryl, are you looking for a grade here,
or do you really want to know?

A little bit of both.

All right. Fair enough.
Trickster is both good and bad.

He brings man knowledge
of the universe as it is.

- Do you understand that?
- Yeah.

Okay, so Jack Tales
and Loki and Daffy Duck

are all examples of trickster gods.

What could be trickier
than shape-shifting?

Right. Like when Daffy
pretended to be a skunk.

That was Sylvester,
and he spilled paint on his back,

but, yeah, you get the point.

Wow. You sure that wasn't Daffy?

Because the duck,
he's always getting into something.

I get the feeling this all
means something to you.

[SARAH SCREAMS]

Stay here and watch our stuff.

Where are they?

Let's check up here.

You want to get that light
out of my face?

Sorry.

- These two belong to you?
- Yeah.

You okay?

She's fine, but if you're
gonna be so jumpy

you scream in the face
of every old man you meet,

you shouldn't be walking in the woods
in the middle of the night.

Trickster.

The trickster.

[MAKES CAWING NOISES]

Dr Powell?

I was just messing around, man.

Hello?

Buzz?

This isn't funny, man.

[BRANCH SNAPS]

Hello?

Dr Powell?

Dr Powell?

[RADIO] The safe return
of the Apollo 13 astronauts

who splashed down in the Pacific
near the USS Iwo Jima.

The astronauts were immediately
flown by helicopter to the Iwo Jima,

where a medical doctor
examined them.

President Nixon
watched the final moments

of the Apollo 13 on TV

and then announced
that he will fly to Houston

to pick up families of the astronauts
and continue on to Hawaii

where he will award the astronauts
with the Medal of Freedom.

- How are you feeling today, Frank?
- Better. Feeling better.

Miss? Miss, I got this itch
that really needs scratching.

You slept through the night.

- First time.
- I know.

Thought you might be up
for some solid food.

I've got something solid right here.

Looks like Johnson's hungry.

Hungry?

Aah! Aah!

No, no.

Do they still have those guys
in the park who sell hot dogs?

Uh-huh.

[DR POWELL] But, sheriff,
Daryl's vanished.

He's been gone all night.

Is he a citizen of Haysport?
No, he's not.

So his disappearance
is not my problem.

- What do you mean, not your problem?
- Who are you?

I'm Sam Crawford. I'm a reporter.
I'm doing a story on the dig.

Not anymore, you're not.

Look, sheriff, last night,
there was an old man

prowling the woods with a shotgun.

One of my students has disappeared,
and you're not going to do anything?

Tell you what... you file a report...
I'll keep my eyes open.

Right.

It's starting again, Kerby. Isn't it?

[laughter]

[ALLIE] When you're a kid.
Anything can take you away...

Soap bubbles

or a hose spraying a rainbow
up over a new-mowed lawn.

I guess growing up means
that it gets harder and harder

to find your way back
to that kind of place

where you can be taken.

The one time I see grown ups

with that same sort of look
on their faces

is when they're just
at first falling in love.

It changed a lot
while you were away, huh?

I wasn't really thinking about that.

I was just thinking
about all those bubbles.

They're beautiful, aren't they?

Yeah. Those kids look really happy.

What happened?

A lot of things.

- In the war?
- I don't know.

That was just
the icing on my cake.

[SCREAMS]

No! Get your kids out of here!

What do you want from me?!
Why do you keep taking me?!

Why did you save me
in the jungle?!

Why didn't you
let me die with my men?!

Frank! Frank!

Jeez, man. Lighten up.
It's not my war.

Come on.

Oh, my God.

Man can't make a damn bubble
in the modern world.

Come on. It's okay.

Frank. Frank.

Hey, it's okay. You can tell me.

My name's Amelia, for God's sake.

I was named after
somebody who was lost.

Can I ask you
to do something for me?

Would you call me Jesse
instead of Frank?

Frank's not my real name.

Maybe someday I can explain.

Excuse me, miss. I'm looking
for Lieutenant Frank Pierce.

Ridley, Personnel Services Office.
Records Branch.

You're a difficult man to find.

- I've been sort of preoccupied.
- You never picked up your medals.

I have a Bronze Star
and a Purple Heart.

- Keep them.
- Excuse me?

Give them to someone
who deserves them.

- You don't want them?
- I don't want 'em.

Okay.

I read the report on this, lieutenant.

What you did...
It's a miracle you survived.

The temple was on fire.
You couldn't save everyone.

I don't know if you blame yourself
for the men you couldn't save,

if that's what this is about...

It's about that
and a lot of other things.

I'm not gonna take your medals.

Well, we'll just add that to the list.

The list of things you're gonna
explain to me someday.

You like it, being a nurse?

I was in college. I knew everything
that was wrong with the world.

I wasn't doing one little thing
to make it better.

What about you? Did you
always want to be a soldier?

I always figured I'd be a mechanic,
like my dad.

- What happened?
- We're different in that way.

I stopped thinking I could fix things.

[horn honking]

[WOMAN] Look out!

You okay, buddy?

Steve, you little idiot!
What were you doing?

Why don't you think?

Ma'am, I think he's scared enough.

- Thank you.
- Yeah.

- You okay?
- Yeah.

You're very brave.

No, I'm not.

It's not brave when you know
nothing can hurt you.

What do you mean?

Someone's watching over you?

You got a guardian angel
or something?

Or something.

Is that what happened
in Vietnam, Jesse?

You thought you couldn't get hurt?

No. I knew I couldn't get hurt.

We were in the Quang Ngai
province, and...

we walked into a trap.

Knowing what I knew,
knowing that I was safe...

I should have been able to do more.

I dared them the whole time,

saying, Go ahead.
Get me out of this one.

And they did.

They got me out.

And they let 27 men from my unit die.

Who are they, Jesse?

Who are you talking about?

Add that to your list, too.

Okay, guys.

The only way to cover enough ground
before nightfall is to split up.

Any problems, blow your whistles.

Keep blowing until the rest of us
can get to where you are.

Sam's offered to help us look.

One more thing...
Someone has to stay here,

just in case Daryl comes back
while we're out looking for him.

I will.

Thanks, Sarah.
You might want to keep this.

Let's go, you guys. Be safe.

Daryl!

Daryl!

Daryl, it's Dr Powell.

Daryl?

Daryl!

Daryl!

Daryl.

[CAWS]

Daryl.

[FOOTSTEPS]

Hello?

Is anybody there?

Hello?

Daryl!

You in there?

Hello?

Any word yet?

Nobody's been back?

This is deeply creepy.

Yeah. Deeply.

Look, I better go back out.

You wanna take this?

You should keep it.

Okay, Okay.

[TWIG CRACKS]

[WHISTLE BLOWS]

[DR POWELL] Aahhh!

[GUNSHOTS]

[SOBBING AND WHIMPERING]

You take care of the problem?

Yeah.

He'd just gotten to Powell
when I came on him.

I shot him twice.

No body?

There was blood all over.
I figured he'd crawled away to die.

You figure, or you hope?

Come on, doc.
I told you, I shot him twice.

You didn't want to make sure,
just in case you were wrong?

What are you looking at, old man?

You ain't helping,
creeping around the woods.

You're damn lucky
you're still alive!

I need some help!

Somebody help me, please.
It's okay.

Shock. Nothing more.

She probably won't remember a thing.

Well, let's hope not.

What's going on here, sheriff?

What paper did you say
you worked for again?

Well... it's a college newspaper.

Uh-huh. Well...

next time an officer of the law
makes a suggestion to you,

like Go Away, for example,

you should think about listening.

If I see you again,

I'm gonna drive you
out into the woods,

and I am gonna shoot you. Go away.

[SARAH] His eyes...

He came through
the burial chamber...

His eyes...

oh, God.

His eyes.

[TWIG CRACKS]

You're all right.

When I found you,
I thought you might be dead.

Then I noticed you were
still breathing, so I...

I dragged you in here

to keep you out of
the elements and such.

Who the hell are you?

My name's Leo.

My daughter's name was Nadine.

She would've been 40 this year.

We got the northern lights
up here,

but in 1958,
there was something in the sky

that wasn't any aurora Borealis.

There were these lights
in the sky... dancing,

moving in ways
you wouldn't believe,

coming down out of the sky
and disappearing into the woods.

My Nadine went walking in there,
trying to see what they were.

She came back
a day and a half later,

no idea where she'd been,

no idea what had happened to her.

It was about four months
after that she started to show.

The twins were born in early '59.

The pregnancy was hard, real hard,
and the birth killed her.

I was Nadine's only family,
so I took the boys.

I named 'em Larry and Lester.

They were all wrong, those boys,
right from the start,

but it wasn't just that.

It was how they looked
and what they could do.

They could peer inside a fellow,
even when they were small.

When I looked in this
boy's eyes. What I saw...

what I saw there was
all my memories and all my fears.

After a little while, it got too hard
for us to stay in town.

Folks just didn't
want them around, so...

we went out into the woods,

stayed in this cabin my father
had built for hunting trips...

How much did you tell him, Leo?

Well, doesn't really matter.

We're gonna take that drive
I promised you.

[THUNDER]

[HUMS]

You killed one of the twins,
didn't you?

You killed him, you wrapped him up
and stuck him in that chamber.

Larry. He was the worst of the two.

Took to trying out his abilities
when he was 16 years old.

Leo mention that? Hmm?

All the dead dogs and cattle?

Things he did to them hunters
in the woods.

This town makes its living
off of hunting season.

Close to ten years, couldn't
pay folks to go in our woods.

Leo wouldn't go near
that cabin himself.

It's my job to keep this town
safe for everybody.

That boy was a menace.

I went up there to try
to talk some sense into him.

Anyway, I didn't wrap him up.

I buried him under a tree.

How he wound up in that burial pit,
wrapped up like that...

I got some ideas.

Come on! Get after him!

[KERBY] Damn it!

Where'd he go?

This way. Come on.

[GASPS]

Can you come with me?

Lester?

[MAN] It's the sheriff.

Whoa. Whoa.

Louise, what the hell is going on?

We're going in after him, Kerby.

My daughter's still missing,
and we know who's responsible.

All right, let's go.

[SHOUTING]

Over here.

She's hurt bad.

Must have tried to climb a tree
to see where she was, and she fell.

Her leg's broke
in a couple of places.

I sneak up when she's asleep,
leave her food and water,

but I can't get her into town.

I'm afraid she'll look at me.

What happens
when people look at you?

I don't know, exactly.

When my brother and I were kids...

we used to just scare folks, mostly.

I think people look at us,
they see too much.

All their memories.

All their fears.

I guess you could say.

Why did you wrap
your brother up like that?

My brother and I... sometimes...

we would draw
in this weird language.

We never knew what it meant,

but it looked kind of like in books
and stuff about ancient Egypt.

Yes.

I knew it was important,
like... maybe magic or something.

I thought maybe if I...
wrapped him up like that,

put him somewhere special
with that writing all around him...

Maybe he'd come back to life.

Kind of foolish, huh?

No. No, Lester, I don't think
that's foolish at all.

I think you loved
your brother very much.

I never meant to hurt

any of those people
who dug up the grave.

I was trying to get help for the girl.

I know.

My, uh...

Whatever it is I do to people...

I guess it got stronger
after Larry died.

I really never meant
for anyone to get hurt.

[GROANS]

You're hurt, too.

I gotta get you both to a doctor.

Just worry about the little girl.

Hi.

Hi.

Are you the one who's been
bringing me food?

No, sweetheart. I'm not.

Is that him over there?

I wanna say thanks.

His name's Lester.
You can thank him later, okay?

Right now, I'm gonna
have to pick you up,

but it might hurt a little,
so can you be brave?

[MOB SHOUTING]

Hey, stop!

The little girl's here! She's all right!

Stop! Stop pouring the gas!

We're coming out!

Come on, sweetie. It's okay.

Come on. All right.

Mister?

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Oh, God. Baby.

Oh, my God.
Baby, did he do this to you?

No, mummy. I fell out of a tree.

Get her back to the car, Louise.

We're gonna finish this
once and for all.

Why don't you
let me take it from here?

Eric. What are you doing here?

You're not a hard man
to follow, Sam.

From everything the sheriff
and Dr Shilling have told me,

you've got something
important to the project...

Some sort of half-breed
or something.

That's why you're here?

I'm here to keep you from doing
anything unfortunate.

The sheriff says
you've been uncooperative.

Look, there's nothing here for you.

I think I'd like to see for myself.

Eric, you can't go in there.

You're going to stop me?

You could be killed.

You care about me, Sam. I'm touched.

He's right, son.
You don't want to go in there.

- Eric, no.
- Get your hands off me!

I'm not gonna let you take him!

Lester don't want to hurt anybody.
Get out of here.

Step away from the porch, Leo.

Mummy, are they gonna hurt Lester?

Hush, honey.

I let you people
take my boys before,

and look where it got me.

No, sir. I'm not moving.

Well, suit yourself.

Come on!

[MAN] Get that gasoline on it.

Mummy, no!

You want him now, little brother?
He's all yours.

Lester, you gotta get out of here.

Larry didn't mean
to hurt anyone, either.

They came out with cameras
to take pictures of the freaks.

Larry just lost his temper.

We gotta go!

What's the point?
Where am I gonna go?

- We'll figure something out.
- You better get out of here.

Lester, come on.

[Sam screaming]

Oh, my goodness!

[BABY COOING]

There you go.
Grandpa did that, didn't he?

Yes, you're very cute.

Hi, Mary.

Come on. Can you say grandpa?

Can you say grandpa?

She's only a week old.

Can't start
indoctrinating them too soon.

Come on, Mary. Grandpa.

Come on. Grandpa.

I wish your brother Sam
was here to see this.

Say grandpa.

Come on.

Julie, could you give
dad and me a minute?

Yeah.

I bring my baby over for you to see,
you're still talking about Sam.

We haven't heard from him
since he left.

We won't be hearing
from him anymore.

Sam is dead.

What?

He went out trying to find proof
that would destroy you,

and that proof killed him.

He died trying to bring you down.

He hated you that much.

You never told me any of the things
you told Sam.

I would never have broken
your trust,

and you never once
gave it to me.

This...

is this what you saw

when you saw your own death?

[screaming]

[HEART BEATING RAPIDLY]

No! Aah!

A stroke, right?

A massive explosion.
Pop goes the brain stem.

That's why you always hated me.

I scared you.

You knew I was the last thing
you'd ever see.

Kind of funny, isn't it?

If you'd been a little kinder,
showed a little more interest,

this might not have happened.

Knowing what you know...
That's what brought us here.

So, how does it end, Dad?

Are you trapped in there?

Stuck inside your head
a while longer

before the lights finally all go out?

I always loved you better.
You know that.

You wet yourself.

Marry me.

That goes in the kitchen.

Master bedroom, please.
Thank you.

Thank you.

Shut the door on your way out.

[OWEN] Eric. I guess
I was wrong about you.

Good luck and Godspeed.

Dad.
