BOYD: Previously on From... (MUSIC BOX PLAYS)

MARTIN: You ever wonder if Abby was right?

What if it's all just a dream?

Who did you come here with?

My mother. She was nice.

What are you drawing?

Things I've seen.

It's good to draw them when you see them

so even if you forget, pictures remember.

When Christopher started seeing that symbol, things changed.

He changed. Everyone died.

TABITHA: I've seen this.

JADE: Yeah, like in a vision or something?

TABITHA: No, on the walls in the tunnels.

What tunnels?

JIM: You heard the voice on the radio.

That means that there are people out there who can see us.

And what part of you thinks that that's a good sign?

You already got people's hopes up with your goddamn tower...

All the more reason that we...

To keep our fucking mouths shut.

What if I told you that drone might get you home

in time for your nephew's birthday?

Experiments have been going on like this for a long, long time.

This radio's pretty trashed.

Well, the radio's not the problem.

I can handle the radio.

And it never occurred to you that some of the people here

might be in on it?

How else do you keep the experiment on track?

KRISTI: You really did it.

You killed one of them.

What do we do with the body?

KRISTI: This is our chance to learn about them.

We can open them up, see what they look like on the inside.

Fuck! Stop!

Fuckin' piece of shit! Okay, stop it!

Stop! Hey! Kristi, hey, hey! Stop!

KENNY: You really think injecting them

with that stuff's gonna kill them?

Honestly, I got no fucking idea.

It's the best chance we got.

How are we even gonna test it?

JULIE: I do have this little trick though.

For when things really start to get to me.

I fill up the bathtub and I sink down just enough

so that the water is level with my ears,

and I just sit like that for a while, and I breathe.

Who is this?

They touch, they break, they steal...

So what's the point?

Well, I told you, once we re-establish connection

we can start as-- No, no, no, no, no.

Not the antenna. I'm talking about this.

Let's say this is one real big experiment.

For what?

Well, there's a lot of value in seeing

how far you can push someone before they break.

Look what this place did to that girl Sara.

The one that tried to hurt your kid?

Yeah.

I'll tell you, the fact that she's still breathing,

you got a lot more restraint than I do.

I'm not gonna let this place turn me into something I'm not.

Shit, they really wanna break people,

I got a few ex-girlfriends they could hire.

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

All right, let's give it a shot.

All right.

(WHIRRING)

There we are.

Keep going.

Yup.

Well, go, go higher.

Uh, that's it.

What?

That's it!

All right, bring it down.

I got it. I got it.

Look, let's say this thing works,

why would the people running this thing wanna talk to you?

They already did it once.

Were they trying to help or were they just tryin' to fuck with your head?

I mean, look at this, look at where we are.

Listen, if you don't wanna help, you...

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

Look, if someone out here really wanted to help,

they would find a way to help.

I still think we'd be better off looking at the people in here.

Like, something this big.

You'd have to have someone on the inside.

Ah, you can't just start throwing around accusations...

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

When you got here, who told you what was what?

Who laid out all the rules?

Boyd, Donna, Father Khatri.

Father who?

Khatri. He died.

That night they got into the Colony House.

Well, did you see it?

See what?

Did you see the priest get killed?

No.

It happened outside the Sheriff's station.

I wasn't there.

Right.

And of all the people that died since you've been here,

how many times have you actually seen it happen?

What's your point?

Well, what if the people these "monsters" are killing,

what if they're all in on it?

I mean, you wanna scare the shit outta people,

you need a body count, right?

Maybe that's why they say when you get here,

you gotta keep your blinds down.

'Cause God forbid you're lookin' out your window at night.

No.

What about that guy, Brick?

What about Tom?

I didn't see it happen. Did you?

I mean, yeah, I saw a body the next day,

but I didn't get close enough to see if that shit was real.

Have you seen one ounce of proof that anyone here has actually...

Nathan.

What?

Sara's brother.

She killed him, slit his throat.

Or she didn't.

Let's just imagine for a second that I'm right,

and everyone here that dies is in on it.

It's gonna mean one of two things.

One, they pushed Sara so far that

she actually killed someone, which, you know, maybe she did.

Or, like everything else, that whole thing with Nathan,

him arriving just in time to save your kid,

what if that's all just for show?

Maybe poor little Sara's not as broken as you think.

(DOOR OPENS)

Hey, Sara.

I was gonna come by and check on you...

I wanna go back out.

Excuse me?

To the woods. I wanna go back.

I'll pack a bag, take a talisman.

What if you were right?

What if the answers are out there?

Maybe we just didn't go out far enough.

Well, we went far enough that whatever's out there

put us right the fuck back here.

So that's it?

We just give up?

I didn't say that.

I get it. People need you here.

You shouldn't be out there, but I can...

Just let me do this.

Okay. Why...

Why do you wanna go out there?

Because I wanna help.

I'm sure you do,

but that's not why you wanna leave. So...

There's no place for me here.

No one even wants me here, and they're right, I shouldn't...

This is something I can do.

There's a difference between going out there

and running away from here.

Leaving? That'd feel good. It'd be easy.

We don't get to do easy anymore.

I can't just sit in that church anymore.

There's nothing for me to do. Nowhere for me to go.

Okay. Good, now we're talking about problems we can fix.

Down there.

That's where I saw your symbol,

and it's...

also the first time I saw the children.

And those, uh, those things that come out at night,

they're down there too?

Yeah.

All right.

This has to mean something. It can't...

It can't be a coincidence.

Why?

How much do you know about chaos theory?

A butterfly... a butterfly flaps its wings in Wyoming.

A month later there's a tsunami in Japan,

and on the surface the two events appear entirely unrelated

but in reality there is an intricate set of connections...

Jade, what the fuck are you talking about?

It's not an accident. We just...

We need more information to see how they're connected.

Well, I'm not gonna go back in there.

(LAUGHING) Yeah, no shit.

I mean, you'd have to be crazy...

Motherfucker.

What?

Did Victor see it?

You told me Victor was down there with you.

Did he see the symbol on the walls?

Of course. He was the one that pointed it out.

Of course. I asked him. I asked him, point blank.

He promised to tell me everything he knew

about that symbol, yet somehow he manages to leave out...

You know, in the entire Venn diagram of crazy that

you and I have seen there's one single point of overlap.

(KNOCKS)

Hi.

Uh, is Ethan home?

Um, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Come on in.

I'll... I'll wait out here.

Okay.

Ethan! Victor's here!

You know, I never got to thank you

for everything that you did that night at Colony House.

I mean, getting me out of there. You saved my life.

Okay. (FOOTSTEPS ON STAIRS)

Hi.

VICTOR: Hi.

'Kay. I'll be ready in two minutes.

Okay.

We're going to help Mrs. Liu at the diner.

I brought you something.

Are you gonna come in?

No, you have to come outside.

Why?

Because you have to try it on.

Come.

It's getting cold and you'll need a coat soon.

This used to be mine.

Can you see if it fits?

Yeah.

(MURMURS)

Here. I drew this for you.

Uh, I don't want this.

Why?

Because pictures are for things that are gone.

But what if something happens to me?

You forget a lot of stuff.

I wouldn't want you to forget me.

I said, don't talk like that.

Well, if you don't keep it, I don't want the coat.

'Kay, you ready? We gotta go.

Wanna come?

Okay.

Come on.

Nice jacket.

Thanks.

BOYD: Are you sure you shouldn't be in bed?

I mean, no, I'm fine.

You know, I'm not gonna be doing any push-ups anytime soon,

but I feel great. Seriously.

Did Kristi check you out?

Yeah, yeah, and she's more surprised than you.

And what about Dale?

Donna's locked him up in his room.

Dad, everything's fine.

What are you smiling about?

(CHUCKLES)

I have some news.

Corey said you were looking for me?

Oh, yeah, I'll uh... Uh, one sec. Yeah.

I'll tell you later.

Okay. Get some rest.

All right, Dad.

Look, Dad I'm good, but go ahead.

Hey.

Are you out of your fucking mind?

I really don't need this today, Boyd.

I have a headache like you would not believe.

I'm not asking you to let her stay here.

Look, just throw me a bone.

Give her something to do. Anything. I don't care.

She just wants to feel useful.

Okay. I'll do what I can. Thank you.

But we have bigger problems right now than Sara being bored.

I got a house full of people on their last nerve,

a madman locked in the bedroom,

and last night Elgin almost drowned in his sleep.

What? He what?

(KNOCKING)

Come in.

Hey.

I heard about what happened last night.

What are you doing?

I found these in one of the closets.

Helps me relax.

Huh.

Wanna tell me about it?

This nightmare of yours.

I was, uh...

I was sitting in the bathtub,

in my dream,

and something pushed me under the water.

Then I guess someone shook me awake,

and I started spitting up water and uh...

How's that even possible?

You didn't tell anybody about anything that happened

at the clinic, did you?

(EXHALES)

Well, I got some good news.

We, uh, pulled something out of that thing,

something that might help us.

So you think it's like a poison?

Well, it could be.

The only problem is we gotta figure out how to get this

inside another one of those things

without getting ourselves killed.

You have a gun, right?

Yeah.

So make some silver bullets.

Huh.

No, you're making that up.

I'm not. Julie, tell him it's real.

What's real?

The Internet.

Oh. Yeah, yeah, that's a thing.

Told you.

(SPEAKS CANTONESE) You come carry.

You're up.

Are you just gonna wear that thing all day?

I like it.

It smells musty.

(SPEAKS CANTONESE)

You put here.

What's this?

Where did you...

Where did you get that?

It was in the pocket.

What's wrong?

(SNIFFLING) I need you to be brave.

JADE: There you are! He's in here!

Listen, we gotta talk. I have to go.

Huh? Nah. Come here. ETHAN: Hey, what're you doing?

Hey! We made a deal, remember?

I play you the song, you tell me about the symbol.

Hey! Leave him alone.

I told you about the symbol.

Yeah, you sure you told me everything?

You didn't tell me you saw it on the wall down in those tunnels?

Hey! Relax! Relax! ETHAN: What tunnel?

Victor, we just want to talk to you.

No, I have to go. Hey! Give me one reason...

Mom, what's going on? Stay here, honey.

JADE: Right? One reason why you wouldn't mention...

Jade! that you saw this symbol on

the wall down in those tunnels!

Just give me one! It's not important.

Yes it is! Goddammit, stop! Hey, Jade! Stop it!

Stop it! Stop it! No, no!

I am done fucking around! You, hey, look at me!

You don't get to pick and choose what you tell us!

Everything... Everything you know,

everything you've seen, it all matters,

because that may be how we go home.

Don't you want that? Huh?

Wouldn't you like to go home?

This is my home.

What is wrong with you?

Is it just physically impossible for you

not to be an asshole for longer than 10 minutes?

Great, you're yelling at me again.

Fuck off. That didn't take very long.

Victor!

(DOOR OPENS)

Sara.

Uh, we were wondering if we could talk to you for a minute.

About what?

We're just trying to get our head around a few things.

This is Randall. He came on...

I know who he is.

What do you wanna know?

You came with your brother.

Where were you going?

Back to Boston.

Where were you coming from?

Why does it matter?

What's going on?

We're just trying to figure out

if there's any pattern to how people end up here.

We just want your help.

Pennsylvania.

I was living in New Hope, but it... it wasn't...

Nathan came to bring me back home.

So you guys were close?

He was my best friend.

That day at the barn...

No. I don't want to talk about that.

Sara...

I know you didn't want to hurt Ethan.

I know that.

And what this place did to you, it isn't fair, but please...

Is your brother still alive?

What?

It's a simple fucking question.

Ease up.

The hell is going on?

(RANDALL CHUCKLES)

It's convenient.

Excuse me?

You just show up here out of nowhere the moment

we start asking fucking questions?

What the fuck are you talking about?

Nothing.

Boyd says you're looking for ways to be helpful.

I got a bunch of clothes that need stitching. You sew?

Yeah.

Great. Here you go. You start with that.

You two get the fuck out.

Who are you, huh?

You think you're some kinda big shot?

Got a little power?

Little pull? Huh?

You like that, right?

You know what you are?

You're a fucking toll booth operator.

You're gonna want to leave right now.

All right, everything's fine.

Everything's okay.

We're gonna go right now. Let's go.

(SCOFFS)

You okay?

Why were they talking about Nathan?

Why do they think he's alive?

(EXHALES) What was that?

What was what?

You wanna figure this thing out

or you wanna be everyone's friend?

Look, I saw the look on her face when you asked her about Nathan.

She doesn't know anything.

Well, Donna might.

No, that's exactly what we cannot...

We cannot go around assuming every little thing.

Okay, look.

We need to watch.

What?

It's what you said about people

keeping their shades drawn at night.

These things that come from the forest,

we need to see what they do

when they don't know they're being watched.

And how to do that?

You go back to the bus, go about your day.

When it gets closer to dark, you sneak out,

you meet me at the RV. We'll stay the night out there.

Maybe see some things they don't want us to see.

Hey.

Dad!

Hey, how's it going in here?

Good, we're just getting ready to clean up.

Where's your mom?

She said she was going to Colony House.

Victor and Jade were in here, and Jade started yelling at him.

So I think Mom just went to go check on him.

(EXHALES)

Are you okay?

Yeah, come here. I wanna talk to you for a second.

What's up?

I'm not gonna be home tonight.

I've got an idea,

something that can get us outta here.

I just need some time to figure it out.

But I'm gonna be fine.

I got a talisman, I'm gonna be inside.

Inside where?

I'm gonna stay the night in the RV.

I'm telling you this so you won't worry.

When you see your mom, you tell her I'm all right.

Okay?

Please be careful.

Always.

Jim. Can I have a word?

Look, if this is about before... You some kind of moron?

What?

What is wrong with you?

I'm just looking for answers, same as everybody else.

By taunting Sara?

Come on.

You asked if her brother was still alive.

Look, I tried to talk to you about this.

Oh, Jesus Christ.

Is this about that fucking voice on the radio?

Why do you say it like it's strange

that I don't wanna just let it go?

Don't even tell me you put this shit in Randall's head.

Listen...

No, you fucking listen.

That guy is a fucking powder keg.

If you start putting ideas in his head, we...

I didn't tell him about the voice, okay?

Talking to Sara was stupid.

I get it.

We all just wanna go home.

Are we done?

Yeah.

Okay.

Victor, I need you to be brave.

(WHIMPERS)

But I'm scared.

Everything's gonna be okay.

You just...

You just draw your pictures.

And no matter what happens,

you do not come out until morning.

I love you. (CRYING)

Mom!

(KNOCKING)

Hello. Hello.

May I come in?

Yeah.

I just wanted to say thank you for the coat you gave Ethan.

That's very thoughtful of you.

Hm.

I remember these.

Ethan said he found it in one of the pockets,

that you were upset.

Can I have that, please?

Yeah, of course.

Yeah, I... I hadn't... I hadn't seen it in a long time.

Victor...

Why didn't you tell Jade we saw that symbol in the tunnels?

Because, it's not good to ask questions.

It's not good.

People shouldn't go looking for answers.

Why not?

'Cause they don't come back.

But looking for answers is our only way out.

I don't think there is a way out.

Well, I know you're afraid that bad things might happen, but...

but Victor, bad things happen here no matter what.

If you know something that could help us...

(EXHALES)

My... My mother said that we were going home.

The night that the bad things happened, she sa...

she said... I don't...

What? What did she say, Victor?

I don't... I don't remember.

Come on, Victor, please.

I don't... I don't remem...

(MUMBLES)

Pictures might.

Well, your pictures were inside the house when it collapsed.

No, not these pictures.

I put them somewhere else.

I put them away somewhere

where I would never have to look at them,

so I would never have to remember.

So that no one else would die.

Do you know where you put them?

(KNOCKS)

Hey, I, um...

What happened there?

Oh, I uh... I don't know.

Somehow I managed to burn myself in my sleep.

It's nothing.

What?

Nothing.

Um, Elgin, that kid from the bus,

he had a pretty interesting idea about how we test our theory.

Okay.

Silver bullets.

What?

You take the bullets,

dip them in the bile, coat them,

fire from a safe distance.

Then we see.

We're gonna need the rest of that bile.

I'm headin' there now.

(BREATHING UNSTEADILY) Just deep breaths, okay?

We gotta get the fuck outta here.

What's going on?

Something's happening downstairs.

(MARI BREATHS UNSTEADILY) It's okay, deep breaths.

Are you sure the sound was coming from the boiler room?

What were you doing down there?

Does it matter?

I haven't... Uh, this just happened.

Do you really think that thing could...

I don't know.

If you see anything come up from up these stairs,

you run, do you understand me?

Yeah.

Okay.

You don't need to be down here.

I'm good.

(RUSTLING)

Go upstairs.

No.

Come on.

(GRUNTS)

(RUSTLING)

(INHALES)

(BREATHING UNSTEADILY)

(RUSTLING)

What the fuck?

Boyd.

No, Boyd, wait.

Hey. Wa...

(BUZZING)

(BUZZING, CHIRPING)

(BUZZING, CHIRPING)

Get her some water.

No, I... This is what I was talking about earlier.

Right.

I... I saw those things in the dream!

I saw those! I...

In my dream I hung up the phone

and I heard the exact same buzzing.

All right? And I looked inside a pot and it was full of them.

Look, okay, let's just try to calm down.

Wait. Elgin said that he...

he had a dream that he was drowning

and then he started spitting up water,

and you had cicadas in your dreams

and those bugs are swarming in that thing downstairs?

No, it wasn't just the bugs.

When the music box started playing,

one of them jumped out

and it burned my arm.

Is that what you...

Yes.

I'm sorry, are you honestly saying

that our fucking dreams can hurt us now?

Marielle. DONNA: Kristi?

Hey. You here?

I was hoping I borrow s...

You look glum.

(EXHALES)

What the fuck's going on?

Victor?

You're a nice lady and Ethan is my friend,

and I... I wanna help.

I know you do.

But I'm afraid to remember.

I know, but I need you to be brave, Victor.

That's what my mother said to me that night.

It's right through here, so...

I saw you less than two hours ago.

When the fuck were you planning to tell me about this?

I'm telling you now.

No, I walked in on you and caught you. It's not the same.

I needed time to...

I just didn't want anybody jumping to conclusions.

And since when am I just anybody?

Donna... No, no, no.

Don't give me that patronising bullshit.

You came to my house this morning,

looked me straight in the eye,

and you asked me for a goddamn favour,

knowing full well this thing was down here.

Okay, you're right! I should've said something.

I'm sorry. Okay? It won't happen again.

And you think you pulled something out of it

that can help kill the rest.

Well, found something that's worth trying.

All right, well, let's get a look at this thing then.

'Kay.

Just watch your step.

There's...

What the fuck?

Jesus.

Piece of shit.

There were bugs.

Hundreds of them, crawling out of the body.

Look, Kenny saw them too.

They probably scattered.

We closed the door.

You need to burn this thing.

Now.

(GRUNTS)

(KENNY AND BOYD BREATHING HEAVILY)

Make sure you get it out far enough

people don't see the smoke and get curious.

Right.

Just push it in.

So, look, this stuff with the dreams...

Yeah?

We burn the body,

and that should take care of whatever's...

has been...

Still, it's probably a good idea if people sleep in shifts.

Just in case.

What about Sara?

I'll bring her to the Sheriff's station.

You and Marielle should come too.

Hey, look, I've seen withdrawal before,

and that's about to get a whole lot worse before it gets better.

I'm not staying under the same roof as Sara.

We'll stay at Colony House, if that's okay?

More the merrier.

All right.

Um, I forgot. Do you have any aspirin?

No, sorry.

Great. Fucking monster bile and no aspirin.

Try a warm compress.

Fuck right off.

(CHUCKLES)

Wait. Don't want...

KENNY: Oh, Jesus.

Oh, great.

TABITHA: Are they in there?

Do you want me to look?

(MUMBLING)

(GRUNTING) (CREAKING)

Victor, I need you to be brave.

I am counting on you.

No.

No, please.

Hey, it's okay.

Victor, Victor, what's wrong?

No, no, no. What's wrong?

No matter what happens, you cannot leave.

No.

(BREATHING UNSTEADILY)

VICTOR'S MOTHER: You need to protect your sister.

Please don't go, Mommy.

These aren't mine. They're not mine.

What?

They were hers.

You just draw your pictures, okay?

And you stay here all night, and when I come back,

we're gonna go home.

I love you.

No!

Oh my God. Victor, Victor, Victor.

It's okay. It's okay.

Okay. Okay.

Protect your sister.

Mom, no! No! Mommy! No! No!

(MUMBLES) Victor. It's okay.

It's okay. It's okay. It's okay. It's okay.

No! Yes. It's okay.

Mommy, wait!

Please, I wanna come with you!

YOUNG VICTOR: Eloise, no!

Okay, it's okay.

(SOBBING)

(SOBBING)

It's okay.

Eloise?

Eloise? Come back.

(GROANS)

Donna.

Hey. I come in peace.

What do you want?

To apologise.

Sincerely. Um...

Look, I know we got off on the wrong foot.

Uh,

I was just hoping that we could talk.

We're all in this together.

Okay.

Okay.

You wanna do the honours?

Yeah.

(WHOOSHING)

(CRACKLES)

You know, I thought I'd gotten so used to being scared

that it just felt normal.

This feels different.

I know.

I mean, it's one thing having monsters come out of the forest.

They start coming out of our dreams?

That's a kind of scary I can't even imagine.

Yup.

My mother told us to hide, and I...

I was supposed to take care of her.

Protect her.

But she was so scared that she ran. And I...

I was so afraid that I...

I-I should've have run after her and...

Victor, you were just a little boy.

But I... I didn't come out until morning.

We should go.

Victor, what is this?

That's...

Eloise said that that's where my mother went that night.

The night the bad things happened.

She went to save the children locked in the tower.

See? That was fun.

Yeah.

You do good work.

You come back tomorrow.

Hi, Sheriff!

How you doing there, young man?

Good.

Good. You guys working?

Mm-hm. Yup.

Right.

(CICADAS CHIRPING)
