WE MONSTERS

Do you like it?

I wrote it for you.

A bit of a squeaky voice.

I'll come and pick you up in just a few days.

Pull over to the right. -Why?

Just do it. Charlie's waiting. We're taking her with us.

Who? Charlie? Why didn't anyone tell me?

You can call mum if you want.

Hi. Charlie. -Hi.

Nice to meet you.

So you're coming to camp as well? - Yes.

It's going to be great.

Are you new at Sarah's school? No, I'm at another school.

But I'll be gone soon.

Can I have one, too?

Can you give me the lighter?

Who texted you? - Let go.

What is it? It doesn't concern you!

Charlie, show it to me.

Since when is he texting you? Don't make such a fuss!

Are you shitting me? Calm down. It wasn't for you.

You can't be serious! Maybe I'm more interesting to him.

You've gotta be kidding. What kind of a friend are you?

Could you pull over to the right? Nature calls.

Come on, settle down!

God, Sarah!

Chill out!

Hi mon coeur. You ok?

Just put her on the guest list. That'll be fine.

It'll be fine.

So, are you chickening out?

No, you stay with Nick. I'll pick you up.

I think... 45 minutes or so. An hour.

Ok!?

Yes. See you then. Bye.

Sarah?

Sarah!

Ok!, you won!

Ha, ha, very funny!

Come on, girls! Playtime is over!

Sarah!

Sarah! Where are you guys?

Dad!

Sarah!

Stay put!

Hold on!

Hold on to the rails!

What are you doing?

Where is Charlie?

Charlie!

I think you should come with me.

Ok!? Come on!

I can't go with you.

You have to.

Come on darling, it'll be fine.

Dad, I pushed her.

What?

What did you say, darling?

Sarah?

I pushed her.

You didn't push her, darling.

She just fell. It was an accident.

Darling, that can't be true.

You're confusing things. It's not your fault. She slipped.

Stop this madness! We're going in and you tell them it was an accident, understood?

It was no accident, dad!

We have to get our stories straight.

We'll say she ran off at the parking lot, ck?

Understand? She just ran off.

Can you say that?

The cell phone was a birthday present.

It would suck if it was broken.

It's not going to work.

Will it work again once it's dry? Pull yourself together!

We should have been there already.

I need you with me, ck? Come on, think!

She's not even registered.

What did you say?

She wanted to sneak in, because of me.

Why because of you?

Because I didn't want to go alone.

Why did she sneak in?

No one knows.

What do you mean, no one knows?

No one knows about it.

Her parents?

Her father wouldn't let her come.

He'd blow a fuse.

And you?

What? Did you tell anyone?

Hello?

Paul?

Oh, thank God!

Sound check is now an hour earlier. They just called.

They want us there now. Hi Sarah!

Did something happen?

She doesn't want to go to camp.

What do you mean?

Nick is waiting outside. We have to go.

I could come with.

Yeah. Ok!

No, she is not coming.

Sarah, hey!

Whats the matter?

We have to go.

No. No. No. I'm not going.

Excuse me?

I'm not going.

Ok!...

Watch out!

Is that yours?

See you tomorrow.

I love you.

Holiday is going to be great. I'm feeling it.

The person you have called is currently unavailable.

The battery is dead, that's all.

Both?

Well, sometimes she is just as chaotic as her dad.

They have internet at the hotel. We'll find the camp's number.

I can already hear her, “Mom, you're so embarrassing,” as soon as I call.

Sure.

Thank you.

Thanks for doing this together.

Thank you for doing this together.

Morning.

Good morning.

So? What shall we do now?

No clue.

I thought we could do something together.

Dad, please!

Has something not gotten through to you?

Fine, we won't do anything...

I'm nothing to you anyway!

Are you ready?

You used to write songs for mum all the time.

Do you love Jessica?

Ok!

Then sing.

Like in the bath. Ok!?

That was pretty bad, wasn't it?

No, not at all.

Let's do it one more time, ck? Ok!

That's me, right?

Yes, that'll be on the cover.

You can keep it.

Concentrate.

Hi Sarah, how's it going?

Did you finish recording?

Do you want to sing together? Should I come over?

That was supposed to be my song!

Sarah!

Sarah!

What is the matter? ls it me? Can I do something?

Stay home, in case she comes back.

Paul, I... Dammit!

I bet they're sitting there, playing cards.

Give me something to bite, so I don't scream.

I closed the nursery to go on vacation with you.

Everythings always a mess.

Is it here?

Yeah, I think so.

Ok!, come on.

I just got back as well. I had a concert yesterday.

And where'd she go?

She ran off, Paul chased after her. They'll surely be back shortly.

She's going through a difficult phase.

I thought: 'God knows what had happened.'

No, it'll be fine I think.

I was the same at that age. I know how it is.

Ifs a bit chilly, isn't it?

No, no. Are you cold?

It gets only warm in here when we jam. Because of the amps.

We only have soy milk, is that ck?

Sorry about the gig.

I'm sorry about the vacation.

Thank you.

What are you doing here?

I want to know how Sarah's doing.

Why don't you answer the phone? I've been calling since yesterday.

I don't know where she is.

What does that mean?

It means, I don't know where she is right now, ck?

Where is this playground?

I dunno, somewhere around here. Michael, over there! I'm going over there.

Sarah!

We'll be in the car in a sec.

Wait, I have...

Let me go!

No! I want to go to Charlie!

We're not going to your place!

Everything will be fine, ck? You guys are the worst.

Paul, we are going to my place!

We'll meet at your place, ck?

What are you doing? What does it look like?

I wanna...

Sarah! We're going to go home first.

This is my week with Sarah!

“Your week.” Super week! We're going to my place, and that's final!

Forget it! I have to tell you...

Enough! Stop it!

Who are you snapping at?

Mum, I'd rather go to your place.

Did you hear what your daughter said?

You've had her Mice, in two months... Not now. Not in front of her.

You knew it was this week.

So what? For you it's always “this week”.

I don't owe you anything. Where were you the first 9 years?

That again? The super daddy and the shitty mother who was never home?

What were we supposed to live off of? Sunshine and music?

Use the amp for a heater, or what?

If I would have had the chance to make my music, yes!

Blah blah blah.

Who did she run away from?

It was obvious that she'd flip out around you!

You make me sick!

Where are you going? This way has been closed for ages.

What are you doing?

Paul, have you lost it?

Seriously, now...

You are still there.

Can I have a moment with her alone?

You were mean.

What do you mean?

You weren't there on my birthday.

But you know why.

Sarah.

Look at me.

You can} tell anyone.

Understood?

No one can find out!

Why weren't you there on my birthday?

Because I had a gig.

And your mother's not allowed to find out.

Do you understand, darling?

I won't. Not a word.

Promise.

Good.

Good.

I'll pick you up tomorrow morning, then we'll do something together.

Whatever you want.

Dad?

Yes?

Do you think she's sexy?

Who? Charlie.

You were staring at her tits.

I watched you stare right at them.

First her birthday and now this.

She's not all there.

Come on, she's an adolescent.

That doesn't explain everything.

We just dragged Sarah all the way across the field.

Is he always like that?

I have to do something about Paul.

What are we going to do now?

I just called the hotel.

Thank you. You're welcome.

She's asleep.

I will pick her up tomorrow morning. Paul, maybe...

I'm not having this discussion.

I will be here tomorrow at 10 am.

I don't know if you know it,

but I like children.

Especially when they're super drunk, puking on your shoes.

Oh man...

I like them a lot more when they're young.

You're crazy.

You're absolutely crazy.

Whats that?

A children's song.

I never sang it to her.

No? No.

Strange, huh?

Ifs nice.

The house there, everything...

When I was there, it was, as if...

As if I'd never lived there.

Did it change that much?

No, not really.

I should have left much earlier. Yes.

Ifs strange how comfort blinds you.

As comfortable as us?

No, not that bad.

Morning.

Thanks! We also slept great.

I'm taking off again, ck?

Don't buy too much, ok? We want to leave tomorrow.

Why is that so filthy? It was in the jacket you puked all over.

Didn't go so well with dad, huh?

Better than it did with you!

Sarah, we gave it some thought.

We thought you'd maybe come with us.

I'm not going anywhere with that jerk-off!

You know what?

After the stunt you pulled yesterday, there is nothing to discuss.

What is he doing here?

Morning, Mr. Kuszinsky. ls Charlie here?

No, why? She hasn't been home for two days.

You're kidding!

Sarah and her are so close. Maybe she knows something.

Yes, of course. Sarah?

She's run away before, but not this long.

Do you know where Charlie is?

So, did you survive your birthday?

Was she at your place afterwards?

Yes, the girls took champagne from me.

Well, they wanted to at least. I yelled at Charlie for it too.

You know where she is, don't you?

No.

Well, she wasn't here at least.

Can I go to my room?

Yes, of course.

Have you been to the police?

She'll pop up soon. We'll let you know if we hear anything.

Bye. Thanks.

Can't you leave me alone?

What are you doing?

I'm packing your things. I'm not coming with!

Whats up with Charlie?

You know where she is. No, I don't.

If you two got into a fight, then maybe a break is the way to go.

You don't have a clue.

Charlie is dead. Whats that all about?

Whats that about?

Why didn't you go to the police?

I did. We were standing there.

Then she tells me she pushed her on purpose.

On purpose!

What should I have done?

Then we drove back home. I had to clear my head first.

Then she tells me that no one knew that Charlie was with us.

Then Jessica came...

Then it was really late.

Fine, we'll call a lawyer now and tell the police it was an accident.

Do you realize what's at stake here?

Why? She's a minor. At 14, not any more.

Not in such cases.

Even if she gets away with it...

What if everyone knows about it?

School, facebook, family, friends, everyone.

She couldn't handle it.

Did anyone see you?

No, I don't think so.

Did anyone see you, yes or no? No!

Ok!, I'm going there now. Where?

To the lake, I have to see for myself.

Are you finished?

We're going to the reservoir.

Do I have to come?

I don't know if I can.

Maybe it would be better if you stayed here.

You call if there's anything, ck? Yes, I promise.

Where was it?

There.

Right about there.

Shit.

Come on, let's go.

Christine, come on, let's go.

I was wondering if I should focus on biology.

During project week Mr. Dietrich called me a “diamond in the rough.”

It's nice eating together again.

I need to go to the bathroom.

If she were to transform into an alien, it wouldn't surprise me.

Me neither.

Why did she do it?

I've been asking myself that.

I don't have the stomach to ask.

What should we have done?

Stayed together for her sake?

We should have separated much earlier.

You didn't tell him, did you?

Did you tell Jessica?

No.

You can} tell anyone.

I wasn't planning on it.

I don't mean just now. I mean ever.

We'll do that again sometime, ck?

Are you coming over tomorrow? of course.

I'm going to my room, ck? Sure.

We have to act completely normal, ck?

See you tomorrow. Yes.

Paul!

Who's there? Charlie's father.

Holy shit!

What should we tell him now? No clue.

Don't open the door!

What does he want here?

He's gone.

He'll be back, that's for sure.

We have to think of what to say.

Why won't you let me in? I just wanted to speak to Sarah.

Hey, get a hold of yourself. I just want to talk, ck?

Get out of here! Go, I said!

Get out of here I said!

Get your hands off of me!

What's wrong with you?

Get out of here or we'll call the police!

Get out of here!

Dad?

Yes, Sarah? ls everything ck?

Everything is Ok!

We'll be right back.

Careful.

Heads up.

Does he know anything?

No... I don't know.

And what if he goes to the police?

Lean back.

Careful. Heads up.

Paul.

What?

Maybe we should go first.

Excuse me, I'm looking for Ms. Benthin.

Let me check. Would you like to sit for now?

Yes, thanks.

Christine!

Hello. Hello.

You aren't here, because I haven't paid for the school trip, right?

No.

No, I...

We are worried about Charlie.

She's Sarah's best friend.

When we called, he showed up at our door. Threatened us, threatened Sarah.

Paul tried to stop him. Paul?

Are you Mo...?

Oh no, he was there for Sarah.

Yes, well... And then?

He knocked Paul to the ground.

Ifs probably nothing and Charlie is probably fine, but...

That reaction, you know. I...

Do you want to file charges?

Against the father of her best friend, no. Here, 2004.

2 years probation.

Had a problem with alcohol.

Rehab... Daughter was in foster care.

Yeah, then I think we'll drop by.

But we should speak to Sarah first.

What? No way!

Do you get along well with Michael?

He gave me that new cell. Brownnoser.

He probably meant well by it.

That's the opposite of nice. You always say it yourself.

He'd move in if he could.

If mum wants him to.

And what about me?

Maybe you just need to talk with mum.

Do you have someone?

A boyfriend?

No. No?

Why did you do that?

Why did you push her?

Hello!

I've brought someone with me.

Please.

Hello Paul. Hello.

Ifs been a while.

He landed quite the punch.

When did you last see Charlie?

At her birthday.

Yeah, at my birthday.

Did you notice anything odd about her?

They were just celebrating.

And you haven't heard from her since?

No, nothing. Right, Sarah?

No texts?

No, nothing. No, I asked her that myself.

Could I please speak to Sarah by myself?

I won't bite, Sarah.

Does she have to?

It doesn't make a difference.

It would be easiest for all of us.

You could have said that we asked her everything.

That's what I did, but she's hardcore.

He struck Charlie?

Because you took a bottle of champagne without asking?

Yes, but... it was just a slap.

Completely harmless, really.

He even gave me the bottle later, as a present.

Was he drunk that night?

Was he drunk that night, Sarah?

So yes...

No, he never drinks anything! He was an alcoholic.

I mean... addicted, or something.

I am certain, that Charlie's fine.

She'll pop up in a couple of days.

Thanks, Sarah.

I'll explain it to you tomorrow, ok? I'll call you.

Just do something nice. You're free tonight.

Does it still hurt?

I love you, dad.

Good night!

Good night.

You can put them on yourself.

Thanks.

They'll suspect him.

Maybe they won't.

Help yourself if you need a towel or anything.

Yeah, Ok!

Sleep well. You too.

Finally... Have you been home yet?

No. I'll go back in a sec.

Danny is waiting outside. He's so sweet.

So caring. So nice.

You can} do that, they are going crazy.

You asked for it.

But not like this. They all stood you up. Assholes.

With the camp and everything. Did you forget already?

Your father was here. He's really worried about you.

He can bawl his eyes out.

That asshole shouldn't have hit me. He hit my dad.

Wow, that's so like him.

The police were here. They questioned me.

Shit, how embarrassing.

Do they buy the water corpse thing?

I don't know.

But ifs getting pretty freaky now.

Hey, where's my cool bitch?

Now you can do something for me.

Please.

Mr. Kuszinsky?

Yes?

Good day.

Ifs about your daughter.

Charlie isn't here right now. Can I pass something along?

You're from child services, aren't you?

Good morning, dad. Morning.

We have to bury the backpack.

Maybe Charlie didn't drown.

Do you want an egg, dad?

Yeah, sure.

That thing has to go.

We have to get rid of it.

Maybe she saved herself somewhere.

Please don't address that in front of Sarah.

You see that she can} deal with it.

Ok!

I'll try it now. It's not going to work.

Better than burying it.

Are you fastened in?

Salut mon coeur.

Yes, everythings fine.

Hey, I forgot to pick up the CDs yesterday.

Let's see how they look. No idea.

Hello?

No, it doesn't matter. If not then...

Then we'll reprint them, ck?

Ok!, Ok!...

Christine?

Where's Christine?

In the nursery with Sarah.

In the nursery? Yes.

Bye.

I don't know if I can access a computer again.

Just stop already! Jesus, I'm coming.

But you're coming tomorrow? Yeah, then rising again.

Jesus style.

They are worried sick about you.

Crazy, just imagine if they get back together.

Yeah, I dunno...

And you?

He's making grimaces all the time.

Keep your head up, everything's fine. I gotta go.

Shit!

What are you doing here?

I... This is for the compost.

No, I mean, what are you doing HERE?

We had a date.

But you forgot. I...

I've got a lot floating around my head.

I've met Paul.

Sarah wanted him to stay the night.

I... I love you.

It's not all that great right now. Let's just go home. I'm done here.

Sarah, turn it off! Foods ready.

Please.

That's Ok!, right? What we talked about earlier?

Yeah, yeah.

Hello.

Looks great. Thanks.

You're welcome. I'm going to eat in my room.

No, you are not. You sit down now, otherwise...

Otherwise what? I'm grounded?

Let it go.

You don't stand a chance.

She's a monster. It'll be fine.

She'll get used to it.

To what?

Us together... A family.

I have vacation days. We have time.

We can take trips...

go to the cinema.

If it doesn't work out, then I can just leave.

Michael, don't be mad, but we can} do that.

Can't do what?

You moving in.

Michael!

Michael, you're getting it wrong. Please don't drive off.

So? Are you fighting?

I'd rather have pizza anyway. Go to your room.

Go to your room, I don't want to see you.

Chill out. Me?

I should chill out? Yes...

Do you have any idea, what you're ruining?

Have you lost your mind?

You'll see for yourself. “lt's all in your best interest.”

What?

That's what you said, after dad left.

The lamps are lit.

The day is done.

And Cod

swims home.

Elephant

comes home.

Little ant

crawling home.

The lamps are lit..

Hi. Salut mon coeur!

Not bad, huh? Yeah, I think ifs cool.

Hello.

Where did you get the lyrics?

Where did you find them? I just found them.

You found them? Yeah.

Will you be staying the night more often...?

No clue.

Say something.

It has nothing to do with Christine.

No, it has to do with you. That's why I'm asking.

It has to do with me? Yes.

Where are you?

Who is that?

What do you want?

You have to help me.

Please!

They think I did something...

to my daughter, understand?

Good...

I've given her a smack before.

Like anyone, you know how that is.

Not like anyone! You almost broke my nose.

I have to speak with Sarah!

She knows me. Please!

I'll see what I can do. Please!

I just wanna talk! Go home!

What did I ever do to you?

What did I do to you?

Who was that? It was the father of...

The father of one of Sarah's friends from school.

He's a violent type and they think he has something to do...

with the fact that her friend is missing.

She's missing?

Yes. That's crazy.

Yes...

What did he want from you?

Talk to Sarah.

But I won't allow it.

She's totally broken because her friend...

Besides, she told the police everything she knows.

Why didn't you tell me that?

I didn't want to bother you, with the gig and everything.

I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry, I was jealous.

I was jealous of your family. That's so antiquated.

I'm sorry.

Excuse me.

I saw the car and I thought...

You have to help me! The cops think I did something to my daughter.

You understand?

You're a good person.

I'm sorry. I haven't had a drink in three years.

I got my shit together for her.

I'd never do anything to my Charlie.

I need to speak to Sarah. I'll see what I can...

do.

What did you do to her?

The squid light up the water.

And all the other fish think ifs moonlight.

Nick, what's up?

Can't you be more elegant?

It's packed.

Ok!

Hey?

Don't you want to go out?

And tell your squid story outside?

Am I making you nervous? Yeah, you make me nervous.

Paul? Not without me.

Paul? Where are you, goddammit? We need to go!

Jessica? Yeah, I'm coming.

We need to go! Ok!

Right now! Yeah, I'm coming.

Bye!

Butterfly

is coming home.

Little bear

is coming home.

Kangaroo

is coming home.

The lamps are lit.

And day is done.

He's here.

Where are you?

In the nursery.

He knows everything!

Ok!, settle down.

What did you do with her?

Fuck!

Christine?

Move!

Fox and goose

coming home.

Cat and mouse

coming home.

Man and wife

coming home.

The light's shine.

The day is through.

Everything sleeps.

Everything wakes.

Everything cries.

And everything laughs.

Everything hushes.

And everything chatters.

Everything is, what nobody knows.

Everything shouts.

And everything listens.

Everything dreams.

And everything swaps

itself with itself.

In this life.

The evening is sitting.

On our house.

Get the first-aid thing!

Now!

Everything will be fine.

And then?

Get out! Help me!

Throw it over there.

In front of the bike!

Shit! Watch out!

Come!

Shit!

From today, it'll be open, they said.

They said from today, we can get through.

From today, here is open.

From today, here is open, they said. They said, from today we can...

From today, we can get through.

They said that from today, we can get through.

From today, we can get through, they said.

From today...

From today we can get through...

From today we can get through...

I just kept driving.

I know.

We are monsters.

I know.

I'll go get the car.

Ms. Kuszinsky?

Let's leave the car in your garage.

You shut the door, right?

Yes.

Good morning! Morning.

What are you doing here? I thought you had a gig.

It was canceled. I...

I had to speak to mum for a sec.

Ok!...

Are you upset? About yesterday?

No.

I have to tell you something.

What?

It's about Charlie. Sarah...!

Her father was here yesterday.

He was at the door, just a wreck.

I didn't open the door. He was so drunk.

I didn't kill Charlie.

She's still alive, really. You can call her.

Sarah, we know it's hard for you. No, really, I'm not crazy!

We wanted to get back at you.

Because you left me alone.

On my birthday, and then the camp thing.

You only think of yourselves.

What are you saying?

I wanted to tell you earlier...

But Charlie didn't want me to.

So, and where is Charlie off to now?

She's with her new lover. He lives next to the reservoir.

We checked it out earlier, with the parking spot.

Sarah, you said that Charlie is dead.

Yeah, but she's alive.

Mum?

Mum, say something!

You have to help me.

We don't have to do this now.

We have to wipe it clean.

What are you doing here?

My father is dead. What?

The police said that details are scarce right now.

He was pretty drunk.

How would you know?

He was here yesterday. Looking for you.

I didn't have the courage to let him in.

Shit, if only I would have said something...

But you didn't.

Neither did you.

Where you off to now? What the fuck's it to you!

Hey, I can} do anything about it! Charlie!

There's no trace of an accident on the bicycle.

He could have fallen off.

He was drunk.

We shouldn't have thrown it down there.

Why should anyone think it wasn't an accident?

We should have run over it!

Where were you then?

We were worried! What are you guys doing?

Why did you do that?

What do you mean?

I'm really sorry about your father.

We'll be there for you.

You?

You ran him over and let him die!

It was an accident.

Your father was drunk. Tell it to the police!

Stop it! Leave me alone!

Leave me alone!

Help! Be quiet!
