- [Josh] I don't know where to start.
(children chattering)
I do know you wouldn't be proud of me,
but I need you to know that I tried.
(intercom rings)
- [Nurse] Paging Dr. Grant,
Dr. Grant, please report to the ER,
Dr. Grant to the ER.
- I didn't wanna be in this situation.
I didn't pick it.
I mean, I just did what I, I did,
doesn't make it wrong.
Sometimes, we make decisions
that people don't understand, (Josh yells)
because they weren't there.
I didn't wanna be in this situation.
(Josh yells) I didn't pick it.
That's what they all say,
'cause no one can be bothered to help.
Why don't you have any money?
I bet you do.
I bet you do, and you just don't care if I die, right?
- Please, ma'am.
Can you just stop?
Can you just not talk so loud?
(solemn music)
- I've been here for so long,
and no one cares about me (laughs).
(dramatic music)
Walking back and forth,
I didn't pick this.
I mean, I just did what I had to do.
Doesn't make it wrong, right? (electricity crackling)
People don't understand, because they weren't there,
because none of us gets a do over,
no point talkin' about it.
- What are you doing?
- It's just what is.
- What are you doing?
What are you doing, stop!
Nurse, nurse!
Please, ma'am.
Stop, stop.
(eerie music)
Stop.
(intercom beeps)
- [Announcer] This is a code blue.
This is a code blue.
- I'll never be normal.
- Nurse, nurse! They're bleeding! (echoes)
Nurse, nurse! - Code blue, code blue.
- [Woman] I'll never be normal.
(people screaming)
I just want it to end.
(electricity crackling)
Make it stop.
(dramatic music)
(bell ringing)
(solemn music)
- I hate that I let you down.
But then again, you're not here, are you?
(dramatic music)
(chains clinking)
- [Mason] I'm sorry, Father, for I have sinned.
I have laid my hands on a man of cloth.
But why should I confess to you?
Why not talk to God myself
and cut out the middleman?
- God's (gasps), God's people,
when they were wandering through the desert,
asked the same question (gasps).
But when God spoke to him, they were so afraid,
so they asked Moses to speak on their behalf.
Most people don't want to hear from God.
They don't like what he has to say.
- [Mason] Oh, I'm not here to talk to God.
I've come to talk to you.
You've tried so hard to protect them
but I have searched
for a very long time.
What was that they used
to call them?
Freaks?
Demons?
Possessed?
- Who are you?
(priest gasps)
- [Mason] I'm just a man searching for truth.
- I don't see a man.
I see an angry boy hiding in a mask.
(Mason grunts) (knife clinks)
(somber music)
(priest gasping)
(Mason grunts)
- [Mason] Who will protect them now?
(clock ticking)
(door buzzes) (lock clangs)
(door thuds)
- [Josh] How you doing, Emma?
- I did it again.
- [Josh] Yeah, I know.
- [Emma] Josh?
- Yeah.
- I can't do this,
this place, these walls, this food.
I want to go home.
- I know you do.
I know this is hard,
(tone whining) but you need to trust me.
This is what we need to do for now.
I'm trying to pull some...
(electricity crackling) (ground rumbling)
- [Emma] He's lying to you.
He's lying to you.
- This isn't forever. - You don't want to be there.
No.
- It's just for a season. - He's lying.
No.
(gasps) I wanna go home.
- [Josh] Emma, Emma, you need to stay in control.
(Emma sobbing)
- [Emma] Please stay, I can't.
- Don't lose control. - I can do better.
- [Josh] Emma, Emma.
- [Emma] I can do better!
- Please, Emma.
Please just trust me, I need you to stay calm.
Emma... - I can do better.
- I need you, I need you to stay calm, Emma.
Stay in control, Emma.
Emma, Emma. - I can do better!
I can do better. - Listen to me, Emma,
I need you to stay calm.
- I can do better.
(cup clatters)
I can do better. - Emma, please.
- I can do better.
Please, Josh (sobbing), please.
(Emma sobbing) (dramatic music)
(Emma panting)
(clock ticking)
(door buzzes) (lock clangs)
(door thuds)
- Let's get you back to your bed.
(Emma panting)
(somber music)
- I'm out of black paint.
- I'll get you some more.
- I didn't mean to break it.
- It's okay.
I'll fix it.
(door buzzes) (lock clangs)
(door thuds)
- I told you.
She's getting worse.
I doubled her dosage.
It's what's causing the nosebleeds.
- Did you notice she's out of black paint?
- What?
- If you didn't even notice she's out of black paint,
that makes me wonder what else you're missing.
If something so simple can get by you,
how can I trust you to help my sister?
- I can't, okay?
That's what I'm trying to tell you.
I'm trying to, but I can't.
(Doug sighs)
Listen, this was only supposed to be
for a couple of weeks, and I've done everything.
There's someone I want you to meet.
He's a specialist.
I think he can help. - No.
No, no, you stick to the plan.
You keep her safe.
You find a new drug to sedate her,
and you fix her, all right.
I'm not letting anyone mess with her head.
(electricity crackling)
When people find out what she can do,
they're not interested in helping her.
So do your job and get her some new paint.
(solemn music)
(ominous music)
(dramatic music)
Do you believe in angels?
(gentle music)
- Yes, I do.
- Then you believe in demons too.
- I don't believe your sister's possessed.
- I've heard people talking.
(voice whispering)
- I've never seen a demon, but I believe they exist.
I also believe people use that word
to describe things they don't understand or are afraid of.
- My dad told me I needed to protect her.
- I'm so sorry.
Things are gonna be really difficult, from now on,
but you'll have each other.
That means more than you realize.
Your dad left her in good hands.
Let's go.
(solemn music)
- [Josh] I'll be the first to admit I have an anger issue.
(fists thudding)
I can't remember what it's like to not feel this way,
to live a normal life, worry about normal things.
They say that the first step is acknowledging
you have a problem and then owning it.
Right, well, here's the thing.
It's not entirely my fault.
(solemn music)
(fist thuds)
(static hissing)
(object clacking) (suspenseful music)
(voice whispering)
♪ This little light of mine ♪
♪ I'm gonna let it shine ♪
(voice whispering)
- [Emma] You can't hide her forever, Josh.
Somebody is going to come looking for her,
and then it will be too late.
(knife clinks)
(Josh gasping)
And then it will be too late,
- [Josh] It's getting worse.
I can't tell what's real anymore.
It's not just in my dreams.
It's like, like I'm living a nightmare.
(gentle music)
(bird squawks)
(engine rumbles)
(car door thuds)
- You know, Josh, we're gonna need some more.
It's not for me.
I have to pay some colleagues to unsee some stuff.
- You understand this isn't easy to come by.
- They think I'm trying to make a quick buck,
and they want in.
- Fine, just let 'em think that.
- Okay, good.
- When are you done?
- Soon, a couple of hours, two hours?
Yeah, two hours.
Are you going to see her?
She had a rough night, last night.
(motorcycle revs)
- [Josh] You said Dad left her in good hands.
I doubt you'd still say that.
I wanna change it.
I try to change it.
But it still stays the same,
over and over and over.
- Uh, do you have any change?
I forgot money for the dryer.
- Oh, sorry, I don't have any cash on me.
- We're in a laundromat.
You can't do your laundry if you don't have any change.
You know what?
Forget it.
(door squeaks)
(door clacks)
- Hey, hey, hey, hey, I got some change.
Now the question is, though,
what are you willing to do for it?
I guess you used up all your tips.
That right?
Hey, ah, ow!
You used to be gentle.
Hey, I was just trying to talk to you, sweetheart.
I miss you, you know.
Hey!
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Hey, just calm down.
(motorcycle revs)
(ominous music)
Don't test me, now give me...
Give me the basket, come on.
- Let go. - No, you...
- [Josh] I think you should leave her alone.
- Just ignore it.
That voice inside your head that's telling you
to be a hero is gonna get you hurt.
- You okay?
- She's fine.
Now why don't you turn around and get outta here
before you wake up in a hospital bed.
- It would've been a lot simpler if I'd just listened.
Let's just say things got off to a rough start.
(Derek grunts)
- (laughs) You weren't ready for that one.
Try again.
(Derek grunts) - Derek!
- You stay outta this.
- Come on. (Derek grunting)
- Stop it!
- Come on!
Come on! (Derek yells)
Is that all you got?
Come on, come on, hit me!
Hit me!
(tone whining)
- Give her back the bunny now!
Give her back the bunny now!
- Hit me!
(Derek yells)
Is that all you got? - It's cool, man.
- [Priest] I don't believe your sister's possessed.
- [Derek] Something's wrong with you, man.
Come on!
- [Man] Give her back the bunny now!
(intense music)
(dramatic music)
- I wish it wasn't a dream.
I wish...
Like I said, you wouldn't be proud of me.
(pager buzzing) (solemn music)
(birds twittering)
- How long have you been from, um, around here?
- Too long.
(pager buzzing)
Shit.
Is she okay?
- No.
I found her passed out in there,
at like four in the morning.
I don't have answers.
But she thinks you've abandoned her here.
- She thinks I've abandoned her, or do you?
Everything I do is for her.
Every choice I make, every sacrifice,
I make it to protect her.
So what else do you want me to do?
- Get her real help, Josh.
Okay, talk to someone who knows her condition.
- No, no, no, we have been through this.
- Yes, we, yes, we've been through this.
But that doesn't change the fact
that these are not the answers.
(syringes clatter)
Okay, this isn't the solution.
(syringe clatters)
Listen, I know a guy...
- No. - And he's...
- Not with my sister.
- Josh, what your sister needs is for you...
- No, no, what she needs is for me
to protect her, all right?
So I'll make this clear.
I don't want anyone poking around in her head.
- Stop it.
Okay.
(Doug coughs)
You have one week.
- [Josh] What?
- She's having an episode almost every day now,
and I've run out of options.
- No, I pay you to do whatever you can...
- No, no, you're paying me to hide her.
And I'm not gonna sit around anymore
and watch her die, because you're too stubborn
or too afraid to do what's right.
Now you either get her the help that she needs,
or you find another place to bury her.
- And what's that supposed to mean?
- We always hurt the ones that we love, Josh.
And you love your sister a lot.
(solemn music)
(door buzzes) (lock clangs)
(charcoal scratching)
(clock ticking)
- I asked him not to tell you.
- Yeah, I know.
- Thanks.
- How'd you sleep?
- Why don't you want to talk to another doctor?
We can trust Doug, right?
He's family.
- It's not that simple, Em.
We have to be careful, even in here.
(both sigh)
Do you remember when we were little kids?
And we read Dad's story about the paratroopers?
And I took one of my bedsheets, and I made a parachute,
and I climbed the tallest tree in our forest,
and I jumped out of it.
I felt like I hit every branch on the way down.
- I remember.
- And you dragged me out of the forest
in your old, squeaky red wagon, took me to see Dad.
- You're lucky I was there to save you.
- And the worst part was I tried it again,
a couple of weeks later.
(Emma laughs)
Just me and you, Em.
- What happened?
(tense music)
- Oh, it's nothing, just some guy at the bar.
- You're not fighting again, are you?
- No
I promise.
(dramatic music)
Yeah, I lied.
But I have to pay for this somehow.
And the truth is I like it.
This is the one place in my life that I have control.
- Come on!
(strikes thudding)
(suspenseful music)
- Come on, Josh.
(Emma whispering)
(big fighter grunts) (Josh thuds)
(solemn music)
(strikes thudding) (big fighter grunting)
You're a liar.
You lied to me.
You're a liar, Josh.
You're a liar.
(dramatic music)
What are you doing, Josh?
You know, I thought I could trust you,
just you and me,
but look at you.
You're nothing but a liar.
I don't even know you anymore.
(dramatic music)
(Josh grunting)
(punches thudding)
(hands clapping)
(gentle music)
(motorcycle revs)
- You want something?
(tense music)
- [Mason] Where is she?
- What'd you say?
- [Mason] I'd like to meet your sister, Joshua.
- [Josh] What was that?
- [Mason] She is very, very dear to me.
- Mention her again!
Mention her!
You have no idea who I am.
- [Mason] You don't know who I am, who I am, either.
(Josh grunts)
(somber music)
(door creaks)
- We failed her.
- [Emma] You were here to protect me.
(ominous music)
(Josh groaning)
- [Doug] Jeez, Josh, what the hell happened to you?
- (sighs) Someone found us.
- [Doug] Who?
- I don't know.
But he's looking for her.
I always thought I could keep her safe
But now
I'm not so sure.
- What do you want to do?
- I think we need to call your friend.
- Okay, I'll give him a call.
- If we do this,
(suspenseful music)
we need to do it my way.
(Josh sighs)
- Josh.
What am I?
- You're my sister.
That's all that matters.
- If that's true, then why am I here?
When you found me in the bathroom,
I wasn't trying to kill myself, not really.
I just needed to know if I was alive or not,
if I was human, if I would bleed,
or just wake up from a dream.
I don't remember what happens,
but I remember the faces after it happened,
every single one.
(Josh sighs)
- I'm gonna get you out of here, Emma, I promise.
I'm gonna get you home, very soon.
- No more promises, Josh.
(door buzzes) (lock clangs)
(footsteps clatter)
(Josh sighs)
- Why'd you want to meet here?
- Ah, bodies are heavy to carry.
It's easier to dump them if they're already at the bridge.
Well, let's go meet the doctor.
You'll need that.
- Josh, I'd like you to meet Mr. Dunn.
- Joshua, it is a pleasure to meet you.
- So tell me, Doctor,
how is it you think you can help my sister?
- Okay, uh, we'll get right to it then.
Doug here has shared your sister's case with me.
I think I may be able to help.
- (chuckles) Well, that's a bit of a problem.
See, she's not the biggest fan of doctors.
In our experience, they tend to make things worse.
- Josh, my interest is in the marginalized,
those who don't fit into regular society.
Think square pegs, round holes.
We all have our differences,
but some of us have something more.
Those are the people who interest me.
They're not just different.
They can, they can do things that aren't naturally possible.
(tense music)
I guess what I'm trying to say is some people are capable
of some crazy shit.
From what I've heard, your sister,
she might be one of these people.
- And what if she is?
- Then she's probably afraid,
afraid of what she can do.
But I help my patients understand their abilities,
and in some cases, maybe even your sister's case,
I can help them to control it.
- All right.
But this is how it's gonna be.
- What does that mean?
(dramatic music)
- You'll have one week.
You'll stay in the building,
and you won't have access to a phone.
You try to get inside her head, you're gone.
You try a test without running it
by me first, you're gone.
(solemn music)
And if you touch her, you're gone.
(door buzzes) (lock clangs)
(door clacks)
- Hi.
(clock ticking)
- You here to fix me?
- (sighs) No, I'm, I'm here to understand you.
- You might not like what you find, Doctor.
- (chuckles) You don't need to call me that.
- Isn't that what you are, a doctor?
- [Malcolm] I'm a specialist.
- What does that mean?
- It means I know enough to be dangerous.
It's a bad joke.
I'm a bit nervous here.
I'm Malcolm.
We should talk.
(birds twittering)
- Out for a walk?
Care to join me?
I saw a picture in your trailer,
um, old girlfriend?
- (laughs) No, that is my sister.
- Ah.
(laughs) Do you still keep in touch?
- A little.
She's not well.
- I'm really sorry.
Is she...
- She's in Trafalgar now.
Look, I appreciate what you're doing.
It's just, right now, I can't...
- Can't...
I'm just having a drink with a friend.
(crickets chirping)
(floor squeaks)
(door squeaks) (door clacks)
Josh.
Hmm.
(floor squeaking) (suspenseful music)
(footsteps rustling)
- Charming and dark.
(clock ticking)
Emma, I need you to know that you can trust me.
Years ago, a boy, he arrived at my office.
He had a, he had a gift too.
He could take the momentum
from things around him, hold it,
redirect it.
At first, it was arbitrary, destructive.
But then, he, uh, he learned to control it.
Oh, it was incredible to see.
(suspenseful music)
Emma, that boy, he was broken,
but I was able to help him.
And I believe that I can do the same for you,
if you'll let me.
- Mine isn't a gift.
You haven't seen what I could do.
- But I'd like to.
Will you show me, please?
- It doesn't work like that.
- No?
But if it did,
wouldn't that mean there's nothing wrong with you?
And if there's nothing wrong with you,
wouldn't that mean you can leave this place?
(door clangs)
(dramatic music)
(ball clatters)
(clock ticking)
- So what happened to the boy?
- Do you listen to all of our conversations?
- What happened to the boy?
- I don't know.
He wanted to find others like him,
give them a place to feel safe.
- A place to be safe?
- You would know about that.
I often wonder if he succeeded.
(tense music)
Say, uh, coffee?
Or just refried beans and canned fish?
- Yeah, there's a machine over there.
- Ah, can I?
- Yeah.
- Instant.
That's great.
(jar clacks)
- So can you help her?
- Josh, whatever you may believe about your sister,
she's not sick.
There's a scientific solution for all of it.
- So what are you saying?
- I'm not interested in fixing her.
She's special.
She can do extraordinary things.
- So if you're not interested in fixing her,
what are you interested in?
- Something triggers all of it.
I'm not sure how.
I'm not sure why.
But I figure it all has to do with the amygdala.
It's the part of the brain
that's responsible for decision-making.
For the rest of us, when we face that,
that fight-or-flight situation,
the decision we make, it, it isn't logical.
It's no different for her.
- I would say it's a lot different with her.
- Sure, but what she's capable of isn't the issue.
I mean, if we... or she... Can just, can just learn
to control that, that split-second decision...
- So you believe it's possible?
- Yeah, I do.
(suspenseful music) (footsteps rustling)
(flashlight buzzing)
- [Man] Mighty early for trespassing.
- I'm sorry.
I was just looking for someone.
- [Man] Are you alone?
I wouldn't recommend a pretty girl
like you being out here alone.
Nobody could hear you if you got into trouble.
Who are you looking for?
- Um, just a friend.
He lives back there.
- You mean Joshua?
- Yeah.
- (laughs) Why didn't you say that?
I haven't seen him for a while.
I only see him when the rent's due.
- Rent?
- [Landlord] Yeah, for the property.
- [Amanda] He rents this?
- (laughs) Yeah, until he buys it,
whenever that is.
He came out here with his sister (chuckles).
I'm always afraid I'm gonna find her dead body buried
in the ground somewhere.
Too bad.
She wasn't hard on the eyes.
- She's at Trafalgar.
- Trafalgar.
Crazy runs in the family, too.
The house used to be in the family, you know.
His grandfather built it.
(laughs) The old geezer was always ravin'
about government testing and end-of-the-world stuff.
Rumor is he, uh, he built a Cold War bunker
and stocked it for the apocalypse (laughs).
Strange stuff always happened around them,
after the accident.
Anyway, I, uh, I got things to deal with.
(ominous music)
Take care of yourself.
(footsteps rustling)
(wood cracking)
(suspenseful music)
- Amanda?
What are you doing out here?
- Uh, yeah, I, um...
- Are you okay?
- Can we get outta here?
- Let's go back inside.
(solemn music)
(eerie music)
(clock ticking)
- The first step is to figure out what triggers them.
Tell me what happens.
- I don't remember.
I get angry, overwhelmed,
and then I just black out.
- You don't remember anything else?
(Emma sighs)
Is it always anger?
- I think so.
No.
Sometimes, I'm afraid.
- Will you trust me?
- Yes.
- Do you remember those pyramid food chains from school?
Millions of blades of grass from one cow,
hundreds of cows for one human.
We're all blades of grass to someone.
Alexander the Great, Genghis Khan, Ramesses the Second,
men who accomplished great feats only possible
on the backs of the nameless thousands who served them.
For most of us, our sole purpose is to serve others,
like the ant.
He works, he builds, he provides,
not for himself, but for his queen.
The masses of this world are designed
to feed the singularities.
- The, the singularities?
- You, Emma, you are here because you're great,
beyond what most of us could ever dream.
You are the singularity.
I'm not here by chance.
Over a year ago, I was called into a hospital.
There had been an incident.
Over 150 people tried to kill themselves,
at exactly the same time, in exactly the same way.
My task was to interview these patients, find out why.
But none of them knew.
None of them could remember.
So I went back and I looked at those records again,
and I found out one other interesting thing from that night.
There was one patient who went missing,
(suspenseful music)
a girl who was checked in by her brother
for a drug overdose.
She was suicidal.
And I believe that she tried
to kill herself again, that night.
Now I also believe that that girl was you.
Emma (sighs), I want you to be free.
You are capable of some incredible things.
- I want to talk to my brother.
- You want to talk to your brother?
Why?
He doesn't want to talk to you.
- You don't know my brother.
- Do you?
Do you know that he's been seeing someone?
Oh, you didn't know, did you?
You're in here, rotting,
and he's out there, moving on with his life.
Seems fair.
- You're lying.
(solemn music)
(ominous music)
- Do you know why you're here, Emma?
It's because your brother has given up on you.
He's ashamed of you, and he's rejected you
by putting you into this hole.
Why do you feel so tied to him when he finds it so easy
to walk away from you?
- You may need to leave.
- Stop holding out on me!
(Emma grunts) (hand slaps)
(Emma gasping) Yeah, yeah.
Show yourself to me.
Stop hiding what makes you different from everyone else.
- (sobs) Please leave.
(hand slaps) (Malcolm grunts)
- Come on, there you are.
I know it's in there.
Show yourself to me.
(tense music)
(Emma sobbing)
You know,
if you're just gonna let them control you like this,
then I guess you're the freak that they say you are,
and this place, this is where you belong.
(Malcolm sighs)
(Emma sobbing)
(solemn music)
I'm sorry.
Hey.
I mean, it's just like you said, right,
that, right now, you're afraid.
You're angry, and nothing happened.
Nothing triggered you.
You know, everything I'm doing is for you.
Please, Emma, I need you to forgive me, please, please.
(Malcolm sighs)
(Emma sobbing)
(door rattles)
(door thuds) (ax thuds)
- [Emma] Josh, Josh,
(ominous music) Josh, I don't want to be here.
I don't want to be here, I don't want to be here.
Help me, Joshua.
Help me.
Help me, Josh.
(dramatic music)
(Emma yells)
(electricity crackling)
(people groaning)
(people chattering)
- [Man] Oh my God.
(Emma sobbing)
- I know what's in there.
- [Man] Give yourself to me.
(Josh panting)
(Josh grunts)
(door buzzes) (lock clangs)
(door thuds)
(electricity crackling)
Emma.
(Emma gasping)
- He said he's sorry.
(tense music)
(dramatic music)
Please don't do anything.
(door thuds)
(strikes thudding) (Josh grunting)
(Malcolm groans) - Stop!
No, no!
Please don't, I'm sorry!
(Josh grunting) (Emma whispering)
(electricity crackling)
(dramatic music)
- Get out! (Malcolm groans)
- [Malcolm] No, no, no, it's not what you think.
I need to see it to understand it.
I need to know. - No.
- [Malcolm] I need to know what her trigger is.
- No, you needed to help her, not make her worse!
- [Malcolm] No, you can't hide her, Josh.
I'm the only one trying to, ah!
(Malcolm gasping)
No, no!
- Look at me!
If you talk to anyone about this,
if you try to come back, and God help me,
if I ever see you again,
(Malcolm gasps)
I will kill you.
(Malcolm sighs) (Malcolm laughs)
(Malcolm panting)
(engine revs)
I know I messed up.
But I have a plan to fix it.
I'm gonna take one last fight,
and with the money from that,
I'm gonna get Emma far away from here.
It's never been safe unless it's just the two of us.
- Hi, can I help you?
- Looking for an Emma Coleman.
- Sorry, Emma who?
- Emma Coleman, um, I'm bringing something from her brother.
- There's no Emma Coleman.
She's not here.
No, I know every patient in this facility.
There's no one by that name.
You must be in the wrong place.
- Okay, thank you.
- Yup.

- It's all right.
My name's... - I know who you are.
- [Amanda] Really?
Your brother told you about me?
- No.
No, he didn't.
(ominous music)
- [Mason] How does it work between the two of you?
You sister, sister, the connection?
I have a theory.
Are you angry?
Are you afraid?
(Josh grunting)
You should be.
(Josh grunts) (Emma gasps)
- Are you... (Emma gasping)
- [Mason] Does she feel everything
or just the pain?
(Josh panting)
How does it work?
- You shouldn't be here.
- [Emma] Who are you?
- I'm gonna go get some help, okay?
- [Emma] What do you want with her?
(Amanda gasping)
(solemn music)
(electricity crackling) (Amanda gasping)
I'll kill you.
(fist banging) (muffled speaking)
(electricity crackling)
- [Mason] When did it start, it start?
Was it always this way, always this way?
- [Mason] Does she feel other people's pain?
(dramatic music)
You can't keep me here, Josh.
- [Mason] How does it work?
(strikes thudding) (Josh grunting)
(solemn music)
(pager buzzing)

- [Mason] Enough!
(Josh gagging)
(Josh gasps) (door buzzes)

- Emma! (syringe zips)
- No.
- Em.
Emma, I can't breathe. (Emma grunts)
Let go.
(Emma wheezing)
Em, I can't breathe.

(doorknob rattles)
(radio warbling)

(Josh groans)
- No.
(Emma yells)
(explosion roars)
(electricity crackling) (ominous music)
Give it back! - Come and get it.
- Josh! - No way.
- Give it back!
- Come and get it. - Give it back!
- Joshua, give her back the bunny now!
Joshua!
- Josh! - Give her back the bunny!
- Give it back!
- [Dad] Joshua, give her back the bunny, now!
- Give it back! (horn honks)
(air bag pops) (tires squealing)
- Josh.
(Dad groans)
Josh.
(somber music)
(Dad grunting)
Are you okay, buddy?
Hey, hey, look at me, look at me.
This may not make sense, right now,
but you and your sister are connected.
No matter what happens next,
I need you to protect her.
(Josh sobs)
(crickets chirping)
(phone rings)
- [Operator] 911, what is your emergency?
- Hi, uh, I need help.
- [Operator] Can you explain your situation?
- Uh, uh, there's a woman here.
I don't know who, she's from that mental institution,
but she's attacked several people.
I think she may have even killed someone.
I heard screaming, and... - Sir, what is your location?
- Uh, uh, 11 Foxline. - Sir, are you in danger?
- Emma.
Emma!
Doug.
Doug!
(Doug coughing)
Wait, Amanda!
- Don't touch me!
I'm calling the police.
- No, no, no, you cannot do that!
They will kill her.
- Who are you?
Who are you, Josh?
You're not normal, and your sister is not normal!
- All right.
Ever since I was little, I can take a hit.
- And her?
She almost killed him.
- She's not a bad person.
She just needs help.
That's why she's here.
I need to help her.
She's in here for her own safety.
- Her safety? - Yes.
Until I can figure out how to stop it,
I need you to leave the cops out of this.
I need you to forget what you saw.
I need you to trust me.
Just stay here until it's safe.
- Josh, when you find her,
don't bring her back here.
You're lucky.
She could've killed you.
I know what it's like to want to help.
- No, I don't want anything to do with them.
- Well, at least stay until...
- I'm not staying.
(suspenseful music)
- [Doug] Hey, wait.
(radio crackling) (radio chattering)
- [Emma] Did you come
did you come to save me?
Or did you come to take him away?
- Josh!
(dramatic music)
Josh!
- Amanda, behind me.
- Just you and me, right?
- Always.
- Then who is she?
- Em, don't do this here.
- Why should I care what they think?
- There's no going back if you do this.
Emma, they can't know what you can do.
- What I can do?
Don't pretend you're any better than me.
- Emma, you need to listen to me.
- Listen to you?
Trust you?
I've been trusting you my whole life!
(Josh gasping)
(voice whispering) And you locked me in a cage.
(Josh gasping) (voice whispering)
(dramatic music)
(Josh groans)
- This isn't real.
This isn't real.
(door thuds)
- Josh, help me.
(ominous music)
Help me!
(dramatic music)
- [Amanda] Josh.
- Amanda, I'm in here!
No, no!
- Josh, what's happening?
- It's just a dream.
None of this is real.
- How can you be sure?
- None of this is real.
It's Emma.
She's in our head, but you need to trust me.
(flesh splats) (tense music)
(Josh gasping)
(hand slapping) Wake up!
What have you done, Emma?
- You blame me for Dad's death, don't you?
That's why you locked me up.
- No, you tried to kill yourself.
I had to.
- But we both know that's not true.
I have a trigger.
- Emma, I need you to open this door, right now.
- I don't control my episodes.
You do.
- Emma, I am sorry.
- You're right.
One of us does need to be locked up.
But who says it needs to be me?
(ominous music)
(Josh gasping)
- It's not real.
It's not real.
None of this is real.
(dramatic music)
It's not real.
(Josh gasping)
- The same four walls.
Nothing but empty promises.
I know you tried,
but I can do better.
I'm gonna give you something better than hope.
Ignorance.
You won't even know you're not free.
- I'm sorry, Em.
I'm sorry I couldn't do it.
- Do what?
Forgive me?
- No.
Admit that I was a part of it,
this whole time.
I blamed you, because I couldn't,
I couldn't admit it.
- Admit what?
- You didn't kill Dad.
I did.
(dramatic music)
- So that's it.
You think you can just say sorry
and forget it happened!
It doesn't work like that!
(Emma yelling)
It doesn't work like that!
- Show us your hands!
(tense music)
Show us your hands, do it now!
- Ma'am, put your hands in the air.
(tense music) (wind howling)
Ma'am!
- Hold it, or I will shoot!
- Nothing's happened yet, but if you do this,
we will be on the run for the rest of our lives.
- You don't have to do this.
I will shoot!
- Emma, there's no going back if you do this.
- Ma'am, put your hands behind your head.
Do not take one more step.
- Emma, you need to listen to me.
No, wait! (gun bangs)
- No.
No (yells)!
(energy crackles)
(solemn music)
(heartbeat thumping)
(Josh gasping)
Josh?
Josh. (Josh sighs)
(gun clicks) - No, no, no, no!
This is not how it ends.
No, you, you were supposed to kill her.
And he would've been all angry
and would never be able to forgive you, but oh...
His rage, his rage would've made you more powerful
than any of us could ever imagine.
I mean guys, I've been more than gracious
to all of you, letting you play your parts, but now,
(ominous music) (wind whistling)
(Emma whispering)
but now, it's too late.
(tense music)
(Emma whispering) (energy warbling)
(Malcolm gasping)
- [Emma] Shoot yourself, yourself.
Shoot yourself. (Malcolm chuckles)
Shoot yourself.
- No, no! - Shoot yourself.
Goodbye, Malcolm.
(gun bangs)
- [Josh] (Inaudible)
We've got to cover our tracks,
not let anyone know that you were here.
(solemn music)
Can't let anyone know what's happened.
Can't let anyone know.
Get some (mumbles)
(speech drowned out by music)
- If you could go back, would you change anything?
- Em, you did what you had to do.
- No, I mean all the way back.
Would you change what happened?
(Josh sighs)
Sometimes we're forced
to make decisions people won't understand.
It doesn't make us wrong.
It's just what needs to be done.
It's gonna be different this time, though.
I promise.
It'll be different.
- You're right.
It is gonna be different, this time.
(solemn music)
- Emma.
Emma!
Emma, we need to go.
(match crackles)
It's better this way.
(fire roars)
(fire crackling)
(crickets chirping)
- Sir, put the gun down, sir.
Sir, please put the gun down.
Put it down.
- I can't.
(solemn music)
