Hey, man.

You all right?

Uh, yeah. Yeah. One sec.

Hi, can I help you?

Yeah, but um, are you okay, man?

Yeah, yeah. I just,
you know, um...

I just passed out on the
floor. It was a long night.

Oh, I'm sorry. I,
my name is Joe.

I'm your neighbor
from two doors down.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hi, I'm Michael.

Well, nice to meet you, Michael.

And I've been wanting to come
down, uh, introduce myself

and welcome you to
the neighborhood.

- Yeah, yeah.
- And the storm last night kind

of gave me an
excuse to come down.

Did you have any damage?

Oh, no. I, I don't,
I don't know.

I didn't realize
it was that bad.

Well, yeah I mean, a few of
the neighbors had some trees

that fell and, you
know, nothing too major,

but um, I mean, do
you still have power?

Uh I don't know.

Oh, guess you do. Um, well good.

Listen, I, my wife

and I were really good
friends with the lady

that lived here before you.

We'd either be here or she
would be down at our house.

And, you know, I, I'm-outta
curiosity, would you mind

uh, if I came in and see what
you've done with the place?

Um I...

Uh, yeah. Yeah. Come on in.

Well, thanks for
inviting me in, Michael.

Whoa.

Yeah, I still got a
lot of unpacking to do.

I'll say, damn. How, how long
have you lived here again?

Uh, about a week-ish.

Alright. That's not bad.

But if you need any
help unpacking any boxes

or anything, um,
just let me know.

Yeah, yeah, I'll let you know.

See you got the
furniture all in place.

Place is looking good.

Yeah, um, this was
all my parents.

I'm not an interior decorator.

Um...

And then that'll be the dining
room, once I get all the

boxes taken care of.

And then that's pretty
much all I have left.

So uh, what do you
do for work, Mike?

I'm in software

development, but I'm
not working right now.

I'm kind of using this
as a break to get settled

and move into the house, um,

but then I'll send
some applications

after that. What about you?

Oh, I recently retired,
uh, but worked in sales.

Mm.

Got a nice place here, Mike.

You have any family,
wife, girlfriend, pets?

Um, no. No, I live
alone right now.

Well, if you're not doing
anything later, we'd love

to invite you over for dinner

and get to know
you a little bit.

Yeah.

Uh yeah, no, that
sounds, that sounds good.

Okay. So what about
say, 7:00 work?

Yeah, um, 7:00's fine.
I'll plan on that.

What the fuck...

You get your uh, internet
and utilities set up?

Yeah. Yeah, I think so.

What about smoke detectors
and carbon monoxide detectors?

Did you check to
see if they work?

I mean, I, yeah, I think
they should be working.

Well, you really
should test them

to make sure that
they're working.

And uh, what about
uh, lawnmower?

You have someone or
you do it yourself?

Joe, stop...

Uh, I think my parents had
mowers that they used, yeah.

That's right,

I, I keep forgetting that

you said your parents
owned the house.

Uh, well, no. So I own
it. They sold it to me,

so it is mine.

And they had been renting it.

- Right. - Okay.

See, I was under the impression

that Nancy owned the house,
which is why I'm confused.

Uh yeah, that's who was
living there before?

Yeah, I think I mentioned
that we knew her pretty well.

Yeah. Yeah, she was
pretty cool then?

Very sweet woman.

I mean, we used to get
together with her, what,

like every two or three weeks?

Yeah. And then, you know,

after a while she just
stopped talking to us.

Oh, really?

Really.

I mean, I think she
was, she was going

through some things at the time

and you know, she just
wasn't herself at that point.

But you know what, she's gone

and you're here, which
is all that matters.

Yeah.

Speaking of which, have
you had the locks changed?

And what about a
security system?

Oh no, I, I haven't
gotten around to that yet.

Gotta have it, gotta
have a security system,

especially these days.

Well, I was under the
impression this was a

pretty safe neighborhood.

It's not about the neighborhood,

it's just you can't
trust anybody these days.

And didn't we have
some break-ins in the

neighborhood not too long ago?

Break-ins?

It, it was a while
ago though. Yeah.

Yeah. Like I said,
security system.

That's gotta be
next on your list.

Michael, didn't you say

that your parents live
nearby? Have we met them?

Uh no, not really.
They live more

deeper Houston, like
towards downtown,

but um, my sister
lives nearby, so...

Oh, that's nice that you
have family close by.

Yeah. Yeah, and I haven't
seen her as much recently, so

um that's, that's good.

Uh, when did you say that
the break-ins happened?

Like how long ago?

I, I don't think it
was too long ago.

I mean, it was the neighbors
down that way, right?

I mean, how long would you say?

Yeah, it was at least two

or three years
ago, I think. Yeah.

- Yeah. Sounds about right.
- Um, are you sure no wine, Mike?

- Uh yeah no, I'm sure thanks.
- But so what, what happened?

How did they break in?

Did they take anything?
Was anyone hurt?

No, I don't think
anyone was hurt.

Um, no real cause for concern.
I mean, I didn't mean to-

No, no. I'm, I'm just-I
was just curious.

Well, look man, I'm, I'm about

to fall asleep right
here, right now.

Yeah, no, I should, I should
get back to the house.

I wish you had been with me
when I went over there earlier.

I saw him passed out on
his living room floor.

Oh no.

You're very welcome.

Hey Mike,

remember, security system.

Right, yeah.

Goodnight, Mike. Take care.

Goodnight. Take care.

Goddamnit.

I believe this is for you.

- What the hell is this?
- I was on my way to the club

to hit some balls and saw
it on your windshield.

Um, probably should have
mentioned it to you yesterday

that you're not allowed to
park on the street overnight.

Are you kidding me? I can't
park in front of my own house?

I, I know it's a dumb rule,

but, you know, I got
one of those myself once

and uh, never paid the fine.

You okay, man?

You look terrible.

Well, I feel terrible.

I didn't get a lot
of sleep last night.

I mean, you're not sleeping
on the floor again, are you?

We gotta stop doing that.

Here, come inside for a second.

So, Michael, what's going on?

Listen, I think someone
was in my house last night.

Someone was in the
house last night?

Yeah, I heard the door open and,

and I don't think they
were here for very long,

but like, just a moment and
then, and then they left.

Yeah I don't know.
I don't remember.

Did they take anything?

No, I, I don't think so.

I've been looking around.
I don't see anything gone.

You said they came in
through the front door?

Yeah.

- Are you sure?
- Yeah, I'm positive.

The, the, I heard the door open

and it's the, it's the creakiest
door in the fucking world

and the door was unlocked.

And I know, I know for a fact
that I locked it last night.

And then I think, fuck, I
think it might've happened

the night before
too, because um,

the back door was unlocked and,

and, and I think
I might have heard

something that night too, fuck.

Okay, listen, first
thing you need

to do is call the
locksmith, have him come

change all the
locks, all of them.

Okay? Because whomever was here,
may have had their own key.

But don't you think someone
might've like, tried

to pick the lock and then
if they picked the lock,

then changing the lock's not
gonna do anything, right?

I, I don't know, but a
locksmith would know.

Okay, - So, there's that.

Now we need to get the
security system installed.

I know.

Like today, do that today.

And, and whether it's a full
blown system like I have

or you just put cameras
around the house,

you need that anyway.

- Yeah. Okay.
- Okay. Third thing, where's your wallet?

It's in my car, in the console.

Okay, first off,
don't do that. Okay?

'Cause when I was here
yesterday, I just noticed

that you had your car
keys just laying out

on the kitchen counter.

So when you go
check your wallet,

make sure all your
cards are there,

and even if they are
there, cancel 'em anyway.

Okay, yeah. Yeah, I'll do that.

Okay, one last thing.

And I, it's kind of out there,
so I need you to bear with me.

Okay, just thinking out loud.

Okay.

I think you might want
to try this Sleep app.

Um, it's a sleep monitor app

and something that
I've used in the past.

- Okay.
- And what it does is it's,

it measured my sleep levels,
whether I was tossing

and turning, whether I
was snoring or deep sleep

or all that-it's really
been useful to me.

Okay. Wait, so what does
that have to do with this?

Well, Michael, I bring that up

because when I came by
yesterday, as you recall,

you were passed out on the
floor in your living room,

in your underwear.

And now I look at you today,

and you tell me you don't
sleep well last night either?

Someone comes into your
house, two nights in a row,

nothing's missing?

You see where I'm going?

Well, I gotta think

that there's a possibility that

you unlocked the door yourself
without even realizing it,

that maybe you were
having a dream and,

and that you were sleepwalking.

Yeah, okay-No, I don't
think that's what happened.

It's just something
worth considering.

I mean, wouldn't you rather

that be the case than
someone being in your

house while you're asleep?

I mean, yeah, I guess.

Look, man, it's just an idea.
I'm just trying to help.

No, I know. I um, I'll yeah, no,

I'll, I'll look into it.

Okay, so let's, let's make
sure we got what we need.

Security system, credit
cards, locksmith.

Yeah, yeah. Okay.
I'll do that today.

Fuck it.

- Yo yo. - What up, brah?

Uh, not much. I'm just chilling.

Nice. Sorry, it's been so long.

It was a crazy week last week.

No, don't worry
about it. I get it.

Yeah. So you all moved in or..?

Yeah um, pretty much.

I just have to
unpack a few boxes,

um but then, yeah.

Nice. Well you need
any help with anything,

just let me know. You're
basically right down the road now.

Yeah, I know, right? Um...

But yeah, no, I
should be good though.

I appreciate the offer.

Okay. So did you meet any
of your neighbors yet?

Yeah um, the guy from
two doors down came over

and introduced himself.

He invited me to dinner.

Is that weird?

Mmm. I don't know.
What's weird about that?

I don't know. Someone
moves into the neighborhood

and you invite them
over for dinner?

I mean, he seems like
a nice guy, but...

Hmm.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure
he is just being nice,

you asshole.

Um...

Maybe he's Mormon.

Oh yeah, probably.

But I mean, like, I
could see like a barbecue

or something where a bunch
of people are coming over,

but it was just me,
him, and his wife.

- Oh, so you did go then?
- Well yeah,

I mean, what, what
was I gonna say, no?

It's just, you made it seem
like it hadn't happened yet.

Oh no. Yeah, this
happened last night.

Well, hey, look at
you. You made a friend.

Yeah. I don't know about that,

but like I said,
he's a nice guy.

And it sounds like
he's been here a while.

Did you know that I can't
park on the street at night?

- What? Really?
- Yeah, I got a ticket last night

for parking in front
of my own damn house.

Huh...

I mean, I was parked under
a tree during a storm,

so I guess I kind of
deserved it anyway.

Did you have any damage
from that? The storm?

Mm no, just like branches
everywhere, but nothing bad, you?

- Nah, same here.
- Although I think it is supposed

to rain like that
again later this week.

Wonderful.

Um hm, well it sounds like

this week probably
isn't the best

time for me to come over
and see the new house,

but sometime soon I definitely
wanna come by and see it.

Yeah. Um, yeah

let me just finish getting

unpacked and then
I'll let you know.

Yeah, just let me know.

So, what are you doing
the rest of this week?

I, I don't know yet.

I think I'll just
see what happens.

God...

All right. Here's your new key.

Uh, thanks. So, what-

Does it look like someone
tried to pick the lock?

No. No, it doesn't.

But if you know
what you're doing,

you could break in
without leaving a trace.

Okay. But so what
about like other keys?

Is it possible-because
my parents own the house,

they were renting it, and
someone was living here before.

So is it possible that they
just didn't return all the keys

or like, did, did my parents
not change the locks?

Sounds like something you
should take up with your

parents, but you never know.

Maybe they left a key
with a family member

or someone in case of

emergency, maybe one
of your neighbors.

I'll take a look
at the other doors,

but I wouldn't have said
this was a break-in.

Hey, what's going
on? Any update?

It happened again, Joe,
- You're shitting me.

Did you try to sleep monitor
app I told you about?

Yeah, I tried it.
It didn't work.

Someone was in my
house again last night.

- Locksmith? - Yeah.

What about a security system?

Not yet. I ordered a couple

cameras. They
should be here soon.

Okay, good. That
should give you some

answers if it happens again.

Mm-hmm. That woman who
lived here before me,

do you have her contact info?

She lives in Tennessee
now, I believe.

And I don't think she would have

anything to do with a break-in.

Well, maybe she gave
a key to someone.

I, she could just help
me clear some of this up.

I'd like to ask
her some questions.

Okay. What I'll do is I'll
text you her contact info.

- Yeah, can you do that?
- You go ahead

and save my number,
that way you have it.

So just go ahead and put
your number in my phone.

Maybe I'll just give
you her email address.

I, I'm really not
comfortable giving out

someone's number like that.

Okay, that's fine.

You didn't wanna talk to
your parents about this?

No, definitely not.

I wanna avoid involving them
in this as long as possible.

It's just unnecessary concern.

Okay. I'm, I'm gonna send
you Nancy's email address,

Nancy Caldwell, and that way
you can send her an email

and if she wants to
talk to you, she will.

Okay.

I was thinking
about getting a gun.

What do you think about that?

I mean, Michael,
I don't think that

bringing a gun in your house
makes your house safer.

Some people do.

I just think at this
point, probably best

to just call the police
and have them look into it.

- I'd like to avoid that too.
- I mean,

if you think someone's breaking
into your house every night-

Let's see what the
security cameras find.

Okay.

- Hello?
- Hello. Is this Michael?

Yeah. Hi, is, is this Nancy?

Oh God, I'm so sorry. You
have to get out of that house.

Whatever it takes, just
get out of that house!

What, what do you
mean? What do you mean?

There's something in that house.

What are you talking about?

It's some kind of
spiritual entity.

The house is haunted, Michael.

I know most people
don't believe in spirits

or demons, but I saw
them in the house.

You saw demons in this house?

Everything you described
in your email is exactly

what I experienced. At first,

it was just little things,
little sounds in the night.

And yes, I would see
them in the bedroom.

Nancy, are you
talking about dreams?

Were these nightmares?

You sound like those neighbors.

It was real. I could feel
them in the room with me.

- Just please, get out of that house.
- Listen, listen Nancy,

I really just wanted to
ask you one question.

Sure. What is it?

Have you, was there um,

was there anyone else
that you gave a key-

God dammit. Listen,
Nancy, I have to go.

Maybe I can try to call you back

later, but I have to go now.

I'm sorry. Bye.

Hello? Hello, please!

I see you in there. I
just need to come inside.

It's so cold.

I'm sorry I can't help you.

Come on man. Let me in!

Look, it's no warmer in
here than it is out there.

It's freezing in here.
So you just need to go.

What don't you understand?

Move the fuck along!

Help, please! I need to
come inside. Open the door!

It's no warmer in here.
You need to leave, now.

You're not welcome
here! Just go away.

I'm never gonna open the
fucking doors so just leave!

Just leave!

Just leave, just leave,
just leave, just leave.

Just leave!

Power.

Shit.

God. No, no, no, no.
Fuck. God, please don't.

God dammit. God dammit.

Oh good.

Don't come in... Don't...

Anything I can help you with?

Uh no, I'm just looking.

All good, lemme know
if you need anything.

Yeah, actually I, I have
no idea what I'm doing.

Okay, well, what are you
looking for, generally?

Um, a gun. Like,
like a, a handgun.

Okay yeah, we got
plenty of those.

Is this for general self
defense or target shooting?

Yeah yeah, like home
defense or home invasion.

Gotcha. Yeah, it's a
scary world we live in.

Lot of freaks out there, huh?

Yeah. Yeah.

You have a particular budget

or dollar amount you
wanna stay under?

Yeah um, maybe like,

I don't know, like
$400? Is that..?

Yeah, I can work with that.

How about this?

Beretta APX.

Competitor to the glock,

about a hundred
bucks cheaper too.

Some of the best
bang for your buck

you're gonna get under $400.

Um...

Okay, let's get that.

You don't wanna look
at anything else?

Uh, um...

I mean, if you think
that we should,

but I mean, if you think that

that's gonna get the job done,

then I don't see why not.

Okay, yeah.

Well, remember we have
the indoor range too,

if you want to
take it for a test

drive before you
make the purchase.

Oh, uh yeah. Actually, that'd
probably be a good idea.

All right. Lay the gun down.

Not bad, not bad.

Here. This might help.

Try this. Don't
focus on the target.

Focus instead on
that front sight.

So you wanna line the sights
up, and just look at that.

And you can let the target
go blurry in your vision.

- Okay. - All right?

All right, one more
time. Here we go.

Yeah, see? That help?

Yeah. Yeah, it did.

All right. With all your
paperwork in, background check

shouldn't take long.

So I'll be able to take
it home then, today?

Yep. And we'll get
you right outta here.

- Beautiful.
- Good to be in Texas, right?

Yeah.

You said you were worried
about home invasions?

Yeah...

just it, um it-

well it's like you said,

there's a lot of freaks
out there, right?

Yeah. That's a fact.

Well you might wanna
think about getting a safe

for the gun if you're worried
about somebody breaking in.

Yeah. Yeah, that's
probably a good idea.

Yeah. We'll take a look
at that in a second.

You don't have any,
uh, family history

of mental illness or
anything like that, do you?

No. Nothing like that.

Okay.

You feeling good? Feeling okay?

Yes.

Who is it?

Shit.

Michael! Michael, what
the hell are you doing?

He was here, Joe. I just heard
him. He can still be here.

Michael. Michael,
stop for a minute.

Help me Joe, please.

I need your help.

I think he's gone, Mike.

So, so what happened?

The camera. He destroyed
the camera and, uh, I think

he must have gone out the
front door, but I don't know.

And... uh yeah, I don't
really remember everything.

Okay. Michael,
you, you do realize

that you fired your gun
at 3:15 in the morning?

I mean, I could hear it
two doors down, Michael.

And then you're running

around your front yard,
waving a gun in the air?

Okay. Can, can we
just put this away?

Do you have a safe or something?

- Uh yeah, okay. - Okay.

Okay. Now what?

Well, let's just sit down and...

Who's here?

It's the police,
Michael, I called them.

Joe!

What was I supposed to
do? I heard gunshots.

Listen, it's gonna be okay.

I'll just go tell
'em what happened.

Why don't you stay here, okay?

Don't tell them about
the break-ins, please.

Just come up with something
else. Tell them, tell them-

It's okay, Michael.

It's okay. I know
what I'll tell them.

Okay, they're gone.

What'd you tell them?

I just told them it was
all a big misunderstanding.

I think we're good.

Listen, man, you gotta
be careful with that gun.

You should maybe just
leave it in the safe.

Unless you're absolutely
sure someone's in the house.

You don't believe me.

I believe you.

But it's hard to explain
something like this to the police,

when you fire a gun in an
empty house, in the middle

of the night, Mike.

Hmm, the police that you called.

Listen man, we're on
the same team here.

I'm just trying to help.

Yeah, you keep telling me that.

Okay. I, I think I'm just
gonna go ahead and head home.

You know, Walgreens
has those sleep aids,

and they're open 24 hours.

Would you consider that?

I don't think so.

I mean, I would even
go and get 'em for you.

It would only take
about 10 minutes.

I said I'm good, Joe.

Okay, well, goodnight Mike.

Don't forget to lock the door.

- Hey. - Hey.

Can I come over?

- Hey. - Hey, Mike. You okay?

Yeah, I just, I needed
to get outta the house.

I needed to get my
mind off of things.

- What do you want to do?
- Uh, I mean,

I wasn't thinking we
had to do anything.

I just wanted to like hang out.

You didn't have any
plans tonight, did you?

No, dude, I had literally
nothing going on.

So I'm happy to see you.

I mean, I am happy

to see you regardless, but...

Uh, are you hungry?

Do you wanna order
Italian on me?

Oh, that sounds perfect.

Great. Okay. Um, how about...

Here, just put in what you
want. Any appetizers you want.

Whatever has the most
calories. It's the weekend.

Oh wow. I forgot
that it was Saturday.

Oh, that's right.
You're not working yet.

Any progress on
that? Job searching?

Zero. I'm, I'm just trying

to get settled into this house.

Uh yeah, when are you
gonna invite me over

to see the house?

I still haven't been yet.

Oh, well, at this rate, never.

Um, which, speaking of which,

this is my first time
seeing this place, right?

- Have you not been here yet?
- I don't think so.

Damn... well,

now you're right down the road,

Yeah no, I was gonna say,
it's such an easy drive.

So...

what's been going on, man?

You sounded pretty
upset on the phone.

Yeah, um...

I just, um...

I've just been stressed with
the house, getting settled

and getting unpacked, and...

I've not been sleeping well.

So,

I've just been very overwhelmed
with the whole thing.

Well, you know I
can relate to that.

That first semester
living alone in

that apartment on campus?

I'm sure you can remember
it was, pretty rough.

- Yeah, I remember that.
- So much anxiety.

- Yeah.
- But eventually I got settled in,

and I'm sure for you it's
just a matter of getting used

to being on your own.

And it might take a
while, but you'll be okay.

Yeah um, it's more than that.

And I don't want to downplay
anything that you went through.

- No.
- Um, but did you ever have nightmares,

or a hard time sleeping?

No. I mean, if, if anything,
it was the opposite of that.

Like, I, I didn't
want to get out

of bed half the time, you know?

I'm basically
afraid to sleep now.

And do you remember
me ever like,

sleep walking or anything?

No. Um, no.

Not, not that I remember.

I mean, it has been a while
since we slept in the same room,

so maybe, but...

Well, apparently
I sleepwalk now.

I have nightmares, like

vivid nightmares.

Like, I remember them
like they really happened.

- They feel so real. - Jesus.

So anyway, um...

as you can tell, I am
having a hard time.

No shit.

Look, have you ever considered
talking to a therapist?

You know I started going
into therapy during that time

to deal with all
that anxiety, and...

I know it's not the same, but
you might find it helpful.

Yeah, no, I haven't

really, I haven't
really thought about it.

Yeah, you might
wanna look into it.

So...

Anyway...

you wanna watch something?

Yeah um, yeah whatever
you're feeling.

Well, I got cheated.

Well, now that's still
don't make it right.

And I know that you wouldn't
feel good cheating your friend.

Can I help you?

How is it? It's good, right?

It's so good. Where
is this place again?

Like 10 minutes that way.

I think it's actually closer
to you than it is to me.

God, I've had good
Italian food in so long.

Good Italian food to me
beats everything else.

Mm.

What was the name of that
place that we used to go

to when we were little?

It started with a G?

Oh shit. Um...

Gugliani's.

Yeah! Yeah...

I wonder what happened
to that place,

do you think they're
still around?

I can't imagine that it is.

No one was ever there.

Unless they had like a money
laundering front or something.

Yeah, could be.

Probably.

- This is so nice, Jenny.
- Thank you, for letting me

just come over and hang out.

Yeah dude, for sure.

- Please do so more often.
- There's no reason not to.

Yeah, for real.

Alright. I gotta go to bed.

Um, are you crashing
here tonight?

You need a pillow and blanket?

Yeah, I'll just crash on
the couch if that's okay.

Yeah, of course.

Umm, hmm...

Uh, here's a blanket.
and look. Who's he?

And look who's here.

Oh shit, Baby.

I forgot you still had him.

Mm, Baby doesn't leave the bed.

Yeah, he's living a pretty
good life these days.

Not as adventurous
as he once was.

Oh, well, Baby was hitting it

pretty hard there for a while.

Oh, we had some good times
together, didn't we, Babe?

Baby doesn't really
talk much anymore.

Mmm.

Well good to see you, Babe.

Glad to see you're
still doing well.

All right. Good
night. Sleep well.

Um, if you need a shower,
you know where it is.

Okay. Thank you. Good night.

Are you okay?

Sorry, sorry.

No, it's okay. I just was just

I just was-

another nightmare.

Did you hear me?

Did you hear me?
Did I say anything?

You just sounded scared.

Yeah, I was scared.
I couldn't move.

I guess it helps when
I just close my eyes.

When I couldn't see
them, I went there.

They, they weren't there.

So...

Who?

Mike.

What is it?

I gotta go.

Mike, what's going on?

Something at the house.
I'll explain later.

Is everything okay?

Everything's gonna be just fine.

Joe!

Open the fucking door!

Right fucking now!

Michael, get in the house
and lower your voice.

What were you doing at my house?

Get that thing outta my
face and I'll tell you.

Okay, I saw your
car wasn't home,

so I was just checking

to make sure your
doors were locked.

Oh, that is bullshit.

Is that the best you
can come up with?

Why don't you just
tell me the truth,

once and for all,

that this has been
you the whole time,

and you don't want me in
this house for some reason.

What reason, Michael?

Why the fuck would I not
want you in that house?

I don't know, Joe. Why
would anyone be doing this?

Why would anyone be coming
into my house and just fucking-

Because no one is coming

into your house.

You fucking sleepwalk.

You know it and I know it.

You, you walk around in
the middle of the night.

You, you, you open doors and
you see shit that's not there.

It's not real, Michael.

You're standing here, waving
a fucking gun in my face.

I mean, this has
gone far enough.

This ends right here, right now.

Give me the gun, Michael.

What did you tell the police?

What?!

What, did you just tell
them this is all in my head?

That I'm crazy and just
imagining that people are

breaking into my fucking
house every night.

I told them it was
a misunderstanding.

I told them it was a mistake.

I told them there
were no gunshots.

I mean, if, if I hadn't
told them what I told them,

you wouldn't be standing
here in my house

with a gun in your hand.

That's bullshit.

I don't need you to believe me.

I just need you to give
me the gun, Michael. Now.

No, man.

Give the gun, Michael.

Fuck you Joe.

I'm sorry bud. Um...

You need help.

You need the kind of
help I can't give you.

You should maybe see a doctor

or someone that's familiar
with sleep disorders,

maybe even a, a psychiatrist.

And listen, I, I pray
nothing but the best for you.

But until you're on the
other side of this thing,

you're not welcome in my house.

And I'm, I'm gonna
hold onto this too.

No, no.

Oh, please no, fuck.

You fucking idiot.

Wake up. Wake up. Wake up.

Damn it, answer your
phone, you fucking asshole.

Joe.

He was here.

He was just here, you fuck.

I need your help.

I just need your help,

and you're not
fucking helping me.

He took my cameras.
I have nothing.

I have nothing but
your stupid sleep app.

Guess what, big surprise.

I don't sleep too fucking good.

It's all a fucking nightmare,
it's a fucking nightmare.

Fuck you, Joe!

Please, just help me, why
won't you fucking help me?

Cheap shit.

Blood pressure a little high.

I've been told that's called
'white coat syndrome.'

Well, from what you filled
out on your form here,

I'm guessing that's
only part of it.

So let's talk about your
insomnia, your nightmares.

Just take me through
that experience.

Okay. So I've been
having these nightmares

that there's
someone in my house.

I live alone.

And I'll be lying in
bed, and I can't move.

And I feel this
weight on my chest

and I swear it is
really happening.

Sleep paralysis.

Yeah. And, but I
will hear things too.

I'll hear the front door
creak open, then the footsteps

and I'll, I'll see these
shadowy hooded figures,

but, so is that normal
to be hearing things too?

Yes. Everything you've described
so far is fairly common.

Auditory hallucinations are
often part of the experience.

Okay. And like last night,
I was at my sister's house,

and I shut my eyes,

and that kind of helped me
to kind of push through it.

Hmm. You mentioned feeling
a weight on your chest.

Do you typically sleep on
your back or on your side?

My back.

Yeah, so sleeping on your back,

or supine position, is
believed to make you more prone

to these sleep paralysis events.

You might try to
sleep on your side

as much as you can help it.

Okay. But what about
the sleepwalking?

Is it normal that all this
stuff is happening at once?

These things can
start to snowball.

It's probably stemming
from your insomnia

and your irregular
sleep schedule.

Michael, are these parasomnias
a relatively new thing in

your life, or have you dealt
with them for some time?

I don't think I've
ever slept great.

But the sleep paralysis

and sleepwalking, that
is definitely new.

Have you experienced a
major life change recently?

Like a new job or a
death in the family?

I just moved into a new house.

Hmm.

And you mentioned living alone.

Is this your first
time living alone?

I think we might be getting
to the bottom of this.

I think, as you
continue to settle in

and get used to
living on your own,

these episodes will
start to go away.

In the meantime, I might suggest
you see a therapist about this.

Anxiety can affect many
different areas of your life.

Let me see about referring
you to someone in your area.

Fucking idiot.

Hey! Wait.

Can I help you?

Yeah, this is my
car. That's my house.

Okay, you know you're not supposed
to park in the street, right?

No, yeah. I know, I know that.

Listen, I, uh, just wanted
to ask you a question.

Um...

Yes?

So I don't, I don't
imagine that you've,

you haven't seen
anything, right?

You haven't seen anyone
breaking into any houses?

I, so I just, I'm, I'm wondering

because I've thought my
house was being broken

into like every night.

So I was wondering if um,
if maybe you'd seen anything

uh, while you were on,
on patrol at night?

I, um, I

yeah I, I mean, I can't
imagine that you have,

I just have very vivid
nightmares, you know?

It's crazy shit, man.

You the guy who fired the
gun off the other night?

No, that wasn't me.

Okay well, I haven't
seen anything

or heard anything about
break-ins in the neighborhood.

Right.

Is this your car then?

Yeah. So I parked here on
purpose, so uh, to make sure,

so I could talk to you.

All right, this is a ticket.

You just need to park
it in the driveway.

Okay. Oh, good.

No, that's what I was
hoping you would do.

Okay. Thank you.

Thank you so much. That's great.

Hello?

Hi Nancy, it's Michael
from the other day,

the house on Green Tree.

Oh, hey Michael.
How are you doing?

I'm good. I'm alright. Um, I

uh, meant to call you back
the other day, but um...

anyway, I, I had a question
that I wanted to ask you

before I hung up that I didn't
get the chance to, which is,

was there, did you ever
give a key to someone?

Like was there a spare key that
you gave to a family member

or a neighbor or
anything like that?

Do you remember if you
might have done that?

Yeah, um no, I had the only key.

Well, your parents had a key,

but I never gave a
key to anyone else.

Right.

What's been going on?

Has anything happened
with the house?

No, no, nothing.
Nothing's happened.

I've just been...

just bad dreams.

Joe.

- Hi Michael. - Hi Olivia.

I just wanted to come
and say that I'm sorry,

um, obviously for
the other night.

That is not who I am.

I promise... Hey, Mike.

What's going on?
What did I tell you?

I just wanted to apologize.

I went and saw a
doctor, like you said.

I'm done, Joe.

I'm just, I'm done
with all this.

I'm sorry for involving you
in this in the first place.

I'm sorry for not seeing that
you were trying to help me.

I'm sorry for
rejecting that help.

And I'm sorry for the way
that I acted the other night.

You were right. I um,

I need help.

And I know that I'm not welcome
in your house. I get it.

I deserve that. But I do
hope that, one day, maybe

in the not too distant
future, that uh, that we can

be friends and just
start over again.

Well, Michael, thank you
for that mature apology,

and I accept it.

But that doesn't change
anything regarding-

No, I know. And that's okay.

I, I understand.

I just also wanted to
tell you that I, um,

I'm gonna move back
in with my parents.

I am clearly not ready to
be completely on my own.

I thought that I was, but I,

clearly need some help, so

I'm gonna go back and just
try to get stronger mentally.

And then, uh I don't know,

but I, I, this is just,
this is just too much,

Michael, I'm not
sure that moving back

in with your parents is the
best thing for you right now.

Well, I don't know
either, but I, that's

that's what I'm gonna do.

At least I'm mostly packed.

So um, anyway, I just
wanted to say I'm sorry,

and uh, thank you for being
such a good neighbor, and

uh, so yeah, goodbye, I guess.

Okay well, don't make any
decisions just yet, bud.

Take your time.

You know, think about it.

Okay, well, I'll see you around.

You're moving back home?

That's what I said.

What the hell happened
the other night?

I mean, shit, you've been
living here like, what a week?

This, this doesn't
make any sense.

Listen, it's, it's
something wrong with me.

I'm not well, mentally.

Well, what does that mean, Mike?

I mean, the world doesn't
wait for you to be ready

for big changes like this.

Sometimes you're
just thrust into new

situations and
you have to adapt.

Well, I'm having a
hard time adapting.

Well, yeah, it takes time.

What, do you think
everything was perfect

for me when I moved out?

No, it, it was a
fucking nightmare.

But you don't just give up and
go back home to your parents.

This doesn't sound like you.

Well, I haven't been
quite myself lately.

No, listen, it's the, it's
the fucking sleep thing.

- The nightmares. - Yeah.

Yeah I mean, that's
part of it, Jenny,

but it's more than just the
nightmares. It's everything.

I'm exhausted. I
can't do this anymore.

Listen, I, I don't even
wanna tell you everything,

but I have made
such a fucking idiot

out of myself so many
times in the last few days,

I had the cops
called on me, so...

I can't do this anymore.

There is something
wrong with me.

I mean, I literally went
to a doctor yesterday

and he told me it's
because of the move.

So I don't know what
else to do. And I'm sorry

that I ran out on
you the other night.

I didn't mean to freak you out,

but I have been pretty
freaked out myself lately.

I mean, shit, I got home

and all of the security
cameras that I put up

around the house
had disappeared.

I mean, you know?

Wait, what?

The cameras,

when I got home, they...

Wait, back up.

You had security cameras
and they went missing?

I, um...

Mike?

Was this one of the nightmares

or you said the camera
had actually disappeared?

Mike.

Hey, are you there?

Mike?

Can you talk to me?

What, what's going on?

Michael?

Mike!

Michael, what's happening?

Talk to me! Michael!

Michael!

- Joe, it's real. It's all real.
- What's going on, Mike?

The whole time, there
was someone in my attic.

- Joe! There's someone in my house right now.
- Michael, calm-okay, okay...

- No I need the gun. I need to end this right now.
- Okay, calm down.

- Give me the gun.
- Calm down, listen, no, no, no, no.

If you really think
someone's in your attic,

then we should probably
call the police

and wait for them to show up.

Damnit, you still
don't believe me.

Joe, I saw him on camera!

Listen man, I believe
you. I really believe you,

Mike. Let's just call 911.

Come on man, stop fucking
around. Give me the gun.

Damn it, Michael!
This has to stop.

- I'm sorry, Joe, I have to do this.
- Please!

Joe, what happened?

Hello? Yes.

It's my neighbor.
He's got a gun,

and he's running down
the street with it.

And I think he might use it.

If anyone's up there,

I have a gun.

This has gone on long enough.

I know you're up here.

Ah, shit!

I just need to
use your bathroom.

I, I just, I just need
to use your shower.

Could, could, could
I use your shower?

I, I just need to
use the bathroom.

No, no uh, I don't think
that's a good idea.

I think we're gonna wait here.

Maybe something to, to eat?
I'm, I'm really hungry.

I, I feel dirty.

I, I just need to use your
bathroom and maybe your shower.

No, listen to me. We're gonna...

we're gonna wait here,

and I'm gonna call the police.

I think maybe I
just wanna leave.

Don't move! Don't fucking move.

We're gonna wait here.

Don't fucking move, stop!

Michael, I don't-

Don't, don't say my
name. Don't say anything.

I don't want to hurt you.

I just wanna leave.

Please, stop.

Please, please don't, don't,

don't come any closer, please.

Don't make me do this.

Stop!

No.

It's okay. It's just a dream.

Sir,

are you hurt?

Sir what, what's your name?

Talk to me. Talk to me.

Michael.

- Are you hurt? - No.

You're all right.

Here's your phone.

Oh, thanks.

I'm so sorry, Michael.

I didn't believe you.

I don't think I
ever believed you.

I don't think I even believed
myself, after a while.

This whole time.

I mean, who knows how
long he'd been up there?

Did they say anything? Who he
was, or where he came from?

They haven't been able to
get any info out of him yet.

And uh, I think it may be a
while before we hear anything.

So I uh,

I guess they cleaned
up the attic for you

and, and everything.

So it's ready if you
want to go back home.

But listen, bud, you're
always welcome to stay

with us if you're not ready yet.

I appreciate that, Joe, but I,

I mean, the house isn't
the problem, right?

I think I just wanna go home,
and try to sleep in my own bed.

And see how that goes.

So you gonna move back
with your parents?

No.

No, I don't think so.

Good. Would you
like me to call him?

Um, would you like
me to call them?

Maybe, have them come
pick you up, or...

of course, I'm happy to
take you home myself.

Unless, you know, is there
someone you'd like me to call?

No, not that I can think-

Wait, can you call my sister?

So you don't, you don't
want to talk to her?

No, not yet.

Okay.

Hey - Hello, Jennifer?

- Mike? - No, listen.

Uh, Michael's right
here sitting next to me.

Um, this is his neighbor, Joe.

Yeah, now, now Michael's
perfectly all right.

He's just fine. I'm calling
from the police station.

Um, we've had a pretty
rough time tonight,

but uh, it looks like
it's all behind us now.

Yes, everything's all
right, but I think

Michael would much appreciate...

Here, use this.

Couldn't sleep?

No.

Me either.

You need some help?

Yeah, I could use a hand.
